it's my turn to call

Emily P.

• Artist Statement

  I'm very drawn to the process of loneliness, this process of waiting. I think most people have very conflicting emotions, teetering between self-love and destruction. It was fun to weave this imagery of longing with the memory of relationships, and being called.

• Creative Statement

  As a child, I was really hesitant about sharing my thoughts, and writing them out was almost like healing. But now, I think by writing, I'm hope to connect communities through universal feelings — loss, guilt, and even positive emotions, like love.
