Emilie Duval is a French-American artist based in Houston, working across painting, video, and installation. Her practice examines how architecture, technology, and economic systems shape contemporary society and our perception of reality. Combining geometric abstraction, architectural imagery, and digital processes, she explores the boundaries between physical environments and virtual spaces.
