Organizer of the dollhouse
Emma Magidson (b. Boston, 1994), Tyler McManus (b. Philadelphia, 1994), and hailey nathel (b. New York, 1996) formed the gadget_gurls artist collective out of the desire to diligently explore their compulsion to make, play, and collaborate. They hope to empower each other and their community to find a sense of realness, brilliance, and empathy in the depths of a hyper-curated world. They are driven by their mutual desire to find connections amongst the seemingly disparate. As a team they realize their connectedness while honoring each other's quirks, propelling their work in unique and exciting directions. With efforts often playful and humorous, the gadget_gurls ultimately strive to elicit empathy by confronting the challenges and complexities that they face in modern, daily life.
