Emily Casella is a multi-media artist who creates ceramic people, interactive sculptural installations, large-scale drawings, graphic design imagery, photography, and video. Her materials know no bounds when creating her conceptual works and humanistic backstories. Preserving fleeting emotions, moments, and commentary on society, she creates relatable and approachable art pieces for viewers to find or lose themselves while viewing the work.

Her ceramic work has been shown nationally in-person and internationally virtually. She is a grant recipient the latest from On-Ramp Grant 2024-2025 cycle https://www.in.gov/arts/programs-and-services/training/on-ramp-creative-entrepreneur-accelerator/meet-the-2024-cohort/. She holds an MFA from Herron School of Art and Design 2019 and a BFA from Indiana University Northwest 2016. She has done numerous solo shows and group shows.

Her Ceramic People have been displayed in public buildings in Indiana and Illinois. Her artwork has been in numerous shows in Chicago, Indianapolis, Arizona, and Northwest Indiana and virtually in international shows. A WAY OUT was exhibited in the Southwest Surrrealism/Surreal Southwest in Prescott Arizona, juried by Amy Ernst (Max Ernst’s granddaughter) in June-July of 2024.
