Bio/Statement:

Philip Emde (b. 1976, Mannheim, Germany) works and lives in Cologne and Neustadt Weinstrasse. Emde studied Illustration and Design at the University of Applied Sciences in Hamburg. In 2011, he was awarded the Joseph und Anna Fassbender Preis, and the Balmoral New York Scholarship. Since 2011, Emde is co-founder of the exhibition space ” Goldwald Projekte” http://goldwald-projekte.de/

“Life, that is law”. This simple observation of nature that the author Daniel Kehlmann enunciates in his novel “Measuring the World” is a guiding principle for Philip Emde. In his body of work, he continuously investigages the question of ” coping with everyday life”, and creates cyclical series that are thematically ordered. In his artistic practice, Emde incorporates etching and screenprint techniques.
