Emma Dwyer is a graphic designer whose work moves between research, archiving, image making, and publishing. In addition to teaching at UIC, she is the Archives Assistant at our Architecture and Design Open Archive, a special collection, research room, and center for publishing.

Emma is one half of the collaborative publishing project Tomato Tomato Tomato, which explores themes including the ways in which power and meaning are produced, fantasy as a means of expression, and the desire to be ungovernable via Risograph-printed editions and ephemera. She is a member of the Chicago Printers Guild and has exhibited work at the Los Angeles Art Book Fair, Pittsburgh Art Book Fair, Madison Print + Resist, and Zine Mercado.
