Emaulé’s work blooms where visual art meets feeling — in the quiet pull of the senses, in the tender study of love and intimacy. Thank you for being here, for stepping into this soft practice of exploration, and the stillness
recent exhibition:
kiss me good luck*
the exhibit ran from July14-20
The exhibit is broken up into two collections:
To the sweetest fate I could ever find & I’ve always known you’d fall into me.
Each piece from the first collection captures a different kind of almost — a slow drift into closeness, a knowing look held too long, the sweetness of surrender just before it slips away. These are not just memories, but emotional residues: love that lingered on mouths, tension mistaken for tenderness, and risks taken with full hearts and open eyes.
In the second collection, these pieces explore what’s left behind when connection outgrows its container: the sacredness found in certain arms, the words that caught in our throats, the slow realization that some people never really leave — not fully. There is longing here, but also clarity. A willingness to name what hurt, what healed, and what still hums quietly beneath the surface.
About Emaule Studios.
Emaulé Studios is run by Emani Lemon (they/them), a multidisciplinary artist and sentimental maximalist, known for transforming memory into material. Through collage, text, and tactile storytelling, they explore themes of love, grief, intimacy, and emotional residue — often using found imagery and fragments of the past to reassemble something honest, raw, and entirely their own.
Their work doesn't just tell stories — it remembers them. Carefully. Quietly. Sometimes out loud.
Rooted in vulnerability, Emani’s pieces invite the viewer to reflect on what lingers: the text you didn’t send, the version of yourself you thought you outgrew, the kind of care you’ve always deserved.
Born and based in Toronto, Emani’s art lives at the intersection of tenderness and confrontation — asking not just what we’ve survived, but what we’re still carrying.
Emaulé is more than just a collage practice — it’s a creative studio that also offers set design and curatorial work across the city.
