Emily Prince
Edit ProfileEducation
She completed her Master of Fine Arts in 2008 from University of California, Berkeley.
Career
Her art consists mainly of drawings which make up larger installations. These works are often site-specific and incorporate a documentation of time passing. Prince was part of the Venice Biennale, showing a multitude of small portraits depicting soldiers killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The piece, titled American Servicemen and Women Who Have Died in Iraq and Afghanistan (But Not Including the Wounded, Nor the Iraqis nor the Afghanis), was purchased by the Saatchi Gallery and on exhibit in 2010.
As of 2010, the piece had 5,213 portraits. Previous projects include a series of drawings cataloguing all the items in her apartment, in definitive categories.
