Emma Pyle (Meetz) is a working artist currently living in Pittsburgh, Pa with a degree in printmaking and book arts from The University of the Arts. The appeal of the book form for her work is the durability and structure. Not only is it a perfect way to house a body of work but an ideal way to tell a story. Books are meant to be handled and used and passed down. Most of her artist books have no words for the viewer to create their own narrative within the realm created.
The daily rituals of the day that allow time to stop and reflect. Morning steam from a cup of coffee, home brewed concoctions to keep spirits strong.
