Our Featured Artist of the Day is Emily Poulin!

Our Featured Artist of the Day is Emily Poulin!

Emily, from Chesapeake, Virginia, earned her BFA in Photography from Longwood University. She has been recognized for her achievements in several publications including, 2014 Incite Journal of Undergraduate Scholarship, 2014 Longwood Magazine, and 2013 17 Portions: Food for Thought.

Emily has been a photographer for five years. Her work in our “Undiscovered.” Show represents a new style for Emily, as most of her past work are documentary photographs. You may recognize Emily’s work, “Emerge” from our Gallery Card. These pieces started with a block of ice, in which she photographed once the flower, frozen within, began to emerge. Emily explains, “The pieces in the show were the result of creating blocks of ice with flowers inside…The series was intended to create a visual representation of the failure to preserve beauty because beauty is seen as a fleeting impermanent thing, especially in nature”.

Visit Gallery Flux today to see Emily Poulin’s work! The contrast between the bright colors of the flower and the cool hue of the ice give the photographs a refreshing tone. We are opening until 5pm today! See more of her photographs on our website!
