Emma Biello is a fine art photographer living and working in Montreal. She has a Bachelor's in Fine Arts from Concordia University and has been practicing photography for close to a decade. Her photography encapsulates the mundane found within inner spaces and architecture in an attempt to form a conversation about humanity without the presence of humans. Her art portrays the feelings and inner workings of people and the ways they appear in constructed spaces. In doing so, her images elicit a dialogue between what is and what once was, constantly tackling themes of memory and nostalgia.
She also produces work about her Italian heritage, what it was like to grow up as a third generation immigrant, and the experience of intersecting cultures within the home. Her work shuffles between digital and analog processes and often takes on a still life approach. There is an emphasis on personal spaces in her art and the ways they reflect our individual identities back at us, mirroring how we exist in them. Oftentimes, she looks to discuss her personal experiences of longing for the past, photographing from an objective and communal perspective that any viewer can resonate with and find themselves in.
