'''Emilie Louise Gossiaux''' (born 1989, [[Metairie, Louisiana|Metairie]]) is an American multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in New York City.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Emilie Louise Gossiaux |url=https://www.joanmitchellfoundation.org/emilie-louise-gossiaux |access-date=2024-09-29 |website=Joan Mitchell Foundation |language=en}}</ref> She creates drawings, ceramics, and installations.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |date=2023-12-06 |title=Emilie L.

Her work engages with themes of interdependence and the entanglements of humans and animals, in conversation with the scholarship of [[Donna Haraway]] and recent work in disability studies. A 2022 [[The Brooklyn Rail|Brooklyn Rail]] review of her exhibition ''Significant Otherness'' described Gossiaux's sculptures and drawings as "...shot through with the radical intimacy that accompanies recognition of our mutual enmeshment."<ref>{{Cite web |last=Packard |first=Cassie |date=2024-07-30 |title=Emilie Louise Gossiaux: Significant Otherness |url=https://brooklynrail.org/2022/06/artseen/Emilie-Louise-Gossiaux-Significant-Otherness/ |access-date=2024-09-29 |website=The Brooklyn Rail |language=en}}</ref> She has been recognized with numerous awards.<ref>{{Cite web |title=School of Art Alumna Emilie Louise Gossiaux Receives the 2024 Ida Applebroog Grant |url=https://cooper.edu/art/news/school-art-alumna-emilie-louise-gossiaux-receives-2024-ida-applebroog-grant |access-date=2024-09-29 |website=The Cooper Union |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Emilie Louise Gossiaux |url=https://www.joanmitchellfoundation.org/emilie-louise-gossiaux#:~:text=Gossiaux%20was%20awarded%20the%20Wynn,and%20The%20Ida%20Applebroog%20Grant. |access-date=2024-09-29 |website=Joan Mitchell Foundation |language=en}}</ref>
== Life ==
Gossiaux was born in [[Metairie, Louisiana|Metairie]], Louisiana, near [[New Orleans]], and raised in the nearby suburb of [[Terrytown, Louisiana|Terrytown]]. She became interested in art at a young age,<ref name=":0">{{Cite news |last=Fernandez |first=Manny |date=December 21, 2010 |title=Hit by a Truck and Given up for Dead, a Woman Fights Back |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/22/nyregion/22about.html |work=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref> but in high school she preferred printmaking and etching to drawing.<ref name=":1" /> She was hearing impaired from a young age, which worsened as she grew older. While attending [[Cooper Union]], she moved into an apartment in [[Bushwick, Brooklyn]] with her then-boyfriend in 2009. In May 2010, Gossiaux underwent an operation to receive a [[cochlear implant]].<ref name=":0" />
In October 2010, Gossiaux was hit by a truck while riding her bicycle in Brooklyn, resulting in cardiac arrest, "a traumatic brain injury, a stroke and multiple fractures in her head, pelvis and leg". Initially unresponsive at the hospital, medical staff told her parents she would likely not recover. However, Gossiaux became responsive over a month after the accident, and was transferred to [[NYU Langone Health|NYU Langone Medical Center]]’s [[Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine]]. The accident did leave her blind.<ref name=":0" /> The story of her recovery was profiled in a 2011 [[Radiolab]] episode<ref>{{Cite web |title=Finding Emilie |url=https://radiolab.org/podcast/110206-finding-emilie |access-date=2024-09-29 |website=Radiolab Podcasts {{!}} WNYC Studios |language=en}}</ref> which has been recognized for its storytelling and emotional impact.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Wen |first=Tiffanie |date=2015 |title=Inside the Podcast Brain: Why Do Audio Stories Captivate? |url=https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2015/04/podcast-brain-why-do-audio-stories-captivate/389925/ |work=The Atlantic}}</ref> Gossiaux's description of being in a coma had an impact on [[Ira Glass]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2023-07-07 |title=‘Like nothing else you’ll ever hear’: the 20 best podcasts ever |url=https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2023/jul/07/20-best-podcasts-ever |access-date=2024-09-29 |work=The Guardian |language=en-GB |issn=0261-3077}}</ref>
