About the Exhibition
In Source, Emma Moriconi turns to the interior of the body—both human and nonhuman. Drawing from intimate medical imagery and archival biological research, her forms shift between organ and landscape, revealing the body as origin, life source, and terrain for transformation.
About the Artist
Emma Moriconi (B. 1997, Milan) lives and works in New York. She interprets hidden structures foundational to human and non-human life, intertwining human and natural histories to illustrate where scientific curiosity and poetics converge. Captivated by the raw and unexpected layers beneath the surface of the body, she references personal images and ultrasounds from reproductive organs to echocardiograms of her mother’s heart.
Her paintings weave together bodily and geologic imagery, incorporating minerals, organisms, and bacteria often found in the human body. Veins, bones, and stones appear in metamorphic states, dissolving into landscapes reminiscent of calcifying caves, sedimentary rock, and anatomical structures. Topographies: mapping the bodie’s structured yet fluid terrain. Human tissues blur into floating organs, rocks suspend into landmasses, and the absence of a clear figure-ground relationship evokes these pulsating webs of matter. The body’s inner workings–its vulnerabilities, cycles of pain and pleasure, illness and renewal, are central to her practice.
From the infinitely micro to the infinitely macro, geologic time scales and biological scientific imaging practices inform her work. These methodologies expose forces beyond human perception, turning the body inside out and inviting the gaze inward. She explores the body as an interconnected system of organs, energy flows, and deep emotional states–while considering the limitations of Western medicine’s traditional classifications that disregard a holistic, spiritual awareness of the body.
Recent solo and two-person exhibitions include Artopia Gallery, Milan (2025), Galerie Timonier, New York (2024), and Villa Clea, Milan (2024). Her work has been included in group exhibitions at Barbati Gallery, Venice (2026), (2025), and C L E A R I N G, New York (2024), among others.
She received an MA in Visual Arts and Curatorial Studies from Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti, Milan, in 2022 and dual BA degrees in World Arts and Cultures and Italian from the University of California, Los Angeles, in 2019. She attended Mountain School of Arts, Los Angeles in 2025 and UNIDEE, Fondazione Pistoletto at Cittadellarte, Biella, Italy in 2021.
