Kristen Joy Emack Artist Talk 1/12/23

Event Info

I’ve been photographing my daughter and nieces for close to a decade. There is something sacred about the lives of girls. Their innocent, confident relationships to themselves, their world, and one another is gravitational. Between them is an intimate and spiritual knowledge, both ordinary and extraordinary, and I aim to capture the brilliance of their communion. I hope that when they look back on this work, they will see their beauty and their devotion to each other, and will find themselves here, in this work we made together, reflected with love.
