BIOGRAPHY 
Emma Amos (1937-2020) was a painter, printmaker, and weaver. She is known for her ability to experiment and combine textiles and painting while using color to emphasize the themes of her work. The profound dialogue Amos’s work makes about the issues of race and gender was to share that the course of art history needs to have a reckoning. Often Emma shared that “the idea that painting is a political act”, and in contemporary art world allowed for her to “make work in this moment”, to talk about racism and sexism in a way that could be felt. “Amos found potential in color, cloth, and the human figure to transgress visually so-called “natural” boundaries and societal norms.
