Emily Sirota (she/they) is a Winnipeg-raised writer and media artist now based in Montreal. Her work spans performance art, new media and diaristic research-creation, bringing together new materialism, trash tv, digital subcultures, and feminist theories of love and sexuality. Through these patchwork sources, Emily works at the interface of the major and the minor, looking to their own bad habits and obsessions as a key to interiority. Informed by theories of propulsive inner longing that frame the personal erupting into the social as a world-restructuring force, she seeks to unravel these wrong fixations, looking for ethical and aesthetic sense within the silly, trivial, impossible and perverse. Their work has been presented at WNDX Festival, aceartinc, Centaur Theatre, and in PaperWait journal and Art+Wonder.
