Neil Emmerson takes traditional print-making techniques into entirely new fields, freely combining printed images with a wide assortment of other media (including plastics, fabrics and recorded sounds) to create complex three-dimensional structures and site-specific installations. These rich, allusive assemblages make gentle play with notional oppositions - masculine and feminine, Eastern and Western, the public and the personal - through which he explores cultural traditions, sexual politics and personal desires.

Neil, who lives in New Zealand is a highly respected teacher as well as an artist of considerable standing, having held more than twenty solo exhibitions around Australia since 1983. He is represented in many public collections, including the National Gallery of Australia and the National Gallery of Victoria.
