About me
My name is Emily Barnes (she/her). I am a transfemme multimedia artist.
I tend to take a synthetic approach with my work. I believe that art does not exist in a vacuum – rather, it is defined by its surroundings and interactions with the world.
Education
I graduated from University of California, Santa Cruz with a Bachelor of Arts in AGPM (Arts, Games and Playable Media).
Interests
I am a long time gamer! My favorite genre is turn-based strategy games, along with other methodical and tactical games like JRPGs and puzzle games.
I have a wide range of music that I’m into, with electronic and industrial being particular favorites of mine. Feel free to recommend any albums that you like!
Finally, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention my love for cooking! I find cooking to be a meditative and comforting process. I especially enjoy making pastas and soups, although my recent favorite is roasted spaghetti squash.
