Emily Floyd’s practice is multidisciplinary in the truest sense of the word. She is a sculptor, a public artist and a printmaker.
She is perhaps best known for her large-scale outdoor works and public commissions, which often reference children’s toys (inspired by a history of toy-making in her family), however Emily also creates installations, smaller scale timber sculptures and works on paper. Her work draws on a great variety of reference points – typography, science fiction, community activism, alternative education, Feminism and themes relating to childhood, to name just a few.
