Career
Upon graduation from Central Saint Martins in 1999 with a degree in graphic design,[3] Emenius moved to Paris and worked in design for Kenzo, Adidas, Nike Nederland, and collaborated with British graphic designer Neville Brody.[7] Emenius works primarily with painting, video, and sculpture and uses different mediums to express themes including portraiture, banality, anthropomorphism, kinetics, high & low culture, and the ritualistic behaviors of man in group.[8] UK based publication 1 Granary speaks to his work as "an exploration of figuration and abstraction" in videos, paintings, sculptures and performances.[9] Inspired by the gesamtkunstwerk school of aesthetic, his work centers on the blending of individual components to create a whole, described by Xibit Magazine as "outlandish" and "eclectic".[10] In 2018-2019, Emenius exhibited solo shows at Nikolaij Kunsthal,[11] Art Busan,[12] and Shin Gallery New York.[13] Emenius has directed film for musicians Trentemøller[14] and August Rosenbaum.[15] Emenius, alongside designer Henrik Vibskov, co-created the acclaimed Vibskov & Emenius[16] art ventures, The Fringe Projects,[17] and The Circular Series,[18] described by Dazed Magazine as a series of projects that go outside of the realm of fashion, touching on a variety of aspects such as performance, art installation, film, and even tapestry.[19] Coverage of Emenius's work has been found in Phillips Auction House,[20] Galerie Magazine,[21] The New York Times,[22] Christies,[23] ArtForum,[24] Vogue Italia,[25] Purple Magazine,[26] Nowness,[14] The Fader,[27] Hypebeast,[28] and The Korea Times.[29]
In 2014 Emenius co-founded the Nordic Contemporary gallery in Republique, Paris,[22] as a platform to create long-term visibility for Nordic art, showcasing internationally the Nordic region's increasing importance in the global art scene.[2]
