Williams College Museum of Art Presents
Emily Driscoll: Works
May 31–July 13, 2008
Press release

Presenting the work of Emily Driscoll, Williams Graduate Class of 2005, this exhibition features a broad range of works on paper, the principal medium in which the artist worked. Driscoll's works are meticulously rendered in wax, pen, ink, and marker. Many depict figures in a dream-like world, where the inhabitants have curious attachments, additions of apparatus or extra limbs, and are in the act of either putting on or removing the items as if they were accessories and clothing. The figures, in their curious garb, seem to be simultaneously connected to and bound to others in a collective drama that comments on the human condition.
