Shownotes

Artist Lee Emma Running talks about her childhood independence and an insatiable curiosity underpinning a lifetime dedicated to making art. Together with iron, glass, paper or bone, Running illuminates our human intersection with the world’s edge spaces and its cabinets of curiosities.

Running engages audiences in conversations about the impact of human-built systems on the natural world through the creation of arresting objects and installations using material such as cast iron, enamel, glass, bone, and handmade paper. She has been awarded numerous arts grants and residencies, such as being a Foundry Resident in the Arts/Industry program at Kohler Co. and Artist in Residence with Opera Omaha, as well as being one of the artists partnering in creating art for Omaha Library’s new central branch. Running’s work is held by numerous museums and other organizations. She was a Professor of Art at Grinnell College from 2005-2021 and now lives and works in Omaha.
