They hold an undergraduate degree in Journalism from Carleton University and have previously worked as a community arts administrator. Emelie is interested in questions of artistic and cultural labour, cultural policy, and media’s role in shaping public life. Drawing from media studies and Marxist political economy, their research examines how art and artists are mobilized within institutional and governance contexts under neoliberalism, foregrounding questions of power, value, and labour.

The Feminist Media Studio is located on the unceded lands of the Kanien’kehá:ka Nation. We seek to stand in solidarity with Indigenous demands for land restitution and reparations.


  
Our work—committed to intersectional and anti-colonial feminist praxis—actively engages and names the predicament of doing feminism on stolen land. We acknowledge that territorial acknowledgement is insufficient to stand in solidarity with Indigenous communities.
Our anti-colonial and decolonial efforts articulated in our Lab Values center resisting extraction in all its facets, de-centering feminist canons, valuing methodologies that oppose white supremacy, and building good relations with human and more-than-humans.
