Lin (Braselman) Emery (1926/28 - 2021) was active/lived in New York, Louisiana.  Lin Emery is known for Large-scale kinetic sculpture.

A kinetic sculptor, Lin Emery of New Orleans is known for polished aluminum abstract work that gracefully blows in the wind, resembling the ballet dancing of which she is so enamored.  Of her work, it is written:  "Her works are about grace, form and motion with an unsaid spiritual connection betwen the artist, metal and nature." (55)  She usually polishes her sculpture to be mirror-like, and creates with a sense of spirituality---not expressive of any particular religion but of unity and ascendency into something beyond herself.

Emery was born in Larchmont, New York and tended by an Irish governess, she spent her early years there and in Florida.  At age 15, she enrolled in Columbia University and also attended the University of Syracuse in upstate New York, Mexico, Chicago and Paris in the late 1940s.  In Paris, she became a student of Russian sculptor Ossip Zadkine (1890-1967), and this experience became the defining time of her life.   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 3632 characters.]  Artist bio
