Cory Emma Siegler is a visual artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Engaging in a variety of media, including patchwork quilting, drawing, bookmaking and printmaking, Cory uses the grid as an underlying structure to create visual networks out of geometry, pattern, and color. Compositions are built out of simple shapes that become complex through the use of repetition, and achieve an overall unity and balance in their final form. Cory often repurposes worn out clothing, linens, and scraps into her textile pieces, which leads to surprising color and textural combinations, gives the fabric a new life and context, and imbues the final work with a material history and memory. 

Cory earned a BFA from Pratt Institute in 2008. Her work has been shown in exhibitions at the Brooklyn Museum (Brooklyn, NY), Jennifer Terzian Gallery (Litchfield, CT), Turley Gallery (Hudson, NY), MONO Practice Gallery (Baltimore, MD), 80WSE at NYU Gallery (New York, NY), Bard Graduate Center Gallery (New York, NY), and Printed Matter, Inc. (New York, NY). She has been an artist in residence at Vermont Studio Center (Johnson, VT), the Wassaic Project (Wassaic, NY), and the Textile Arts Center (Brooklyn, NY).
