Emily Waszak is a Donegal-based visual artist of Japanese-descent working in sculpture and textiles. With a background in industrial weaving, her work is concerned with ritual, ruin and landscape. Waszak’s newly commissioned work, Obaachan I (2025) is a monumental hand-woven textile sculpture that explores ritual as an ancestral technology. This work embraces the soft power of textiles, serving as both an architectural intervention and an amulet that calls on the ancestral spirits for protection.
