DIMIN is returning to The Armory Show with a solo booth by New York-based painter Emily Coan.
Emily Coan will complete her ongoing “Spider Silk” narrative with large-scale paintings exemplifying the culmination of the womens’ quest through the perilous realm. "Spider Silk" was first exhibited at DIMIN in 2024, then journeyed to Paris in "Nightshades" at Long Story Short. The Armory Show will complete their journey—the sisters will transcend the stairs into twilight.

Booth P47
Javits Center, New York, NY
Emily Coan (b. 1991, St. Petersburg, FL) is an artist based in the Hudson Valley, NY. In 2013, she received her BFA in Sculpture from the University of Florida and moved to New York City in 2015. Compositionally complex, multilayered oil paintings are the vehicle for Coan’s storytelling, conjuring a world where female protagonists confront femininity, womens’ labor, and power. The work is set in fairytale-esque environments inspired by the Hudson Valley. In 2024, Coan presented her fourth solo exhibition in New York and her first with DIMIN titled “Spider Silk”, featured in Interview Magazine and T Magazine. Coan’s work has also been featured in Artnet, Whitewall, New American Paintings, and Playboy. In 2025, Coan presented work at the Ponds Society, Shanghai; and a solo exhibition at A Long Story Short, Paris. She was a resident at the Palazzo Monti, Brescia, Italy (2024), and has participated in group exhibitions at DIMIN, New York; Nino Mier, New York; Monya Rowe Gallery, New York; De Boer, Los Angeles; Gowen Contemporary, Geneva, Switzerland; and Kutlesa, Goldau, Switzerland.
