 Nice blurb on my piece White Room on Poppy Gall Blog

"I just popped onto the Design Sponge Blog and discovered Emily Ann Nachison's fiber art installation. It reminds me of this mornings fresh snow, or a stage set for a winter fairy tale. Emily used netting, camouflage netting, latex paint, spray paint, crystals, zip ties, and string to create this heavenly installation.  I was planning to take a day off from blogging today but I couldn’t resist sharing these images with you."

Corina Reynolds wrote a nice write-up on my art work and the work of Thomas Demand, discussing the idea of mimicry and the grotto.

"...Nachison uses unnatural materials to mimic the natural word. The fantastical environments she creates evoke questions about disillusionment and consumption. One of her most recent pieces, shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, was similar in theme to one of Demand's pieces—it was a grotto. Made from modern materials often used in the construction and housing industry, Nachison's White Grotto became a welcome oasis in the cacophonous Out of the Woods show that brimmed with video and performance art."
