I’m Erin, a multimedia artist currently based in Chicago. My goal is to create art in a meaningful way with other artists, musicians, and people to connect in a more genuine way than we may be used to in our everyday lives. I am open to creating and learning new mediums, although I have found the most connection to photographic and videographic mediums.
Since going into quarantine in early 2020, I have found new meaning in creation for myself and others. In the time away from others, I and seemingly many other artists asked ourselves, “who are we creating for, and why?” I finally had time to really focus on that question, and the answer was obvious but strange- I didn’t care about being the best photographer, artist, musician; I didn’t want to be the most successful or make the most money. I genuinely wanted to connect with others and be able to make people ask questions about what I had created, regardless of medium. Through this, I am redefining for myself what creating art means to me, and changing my online presence to reflect that. Throughout this next year and beyond, I will be creating with this in mind.
I am now offering film photography for any session that is interested in addition to digital photography and videography. I am open to various kinds of sessions, but will be focusing primarily on sessions for musicians/bands and music videos in the upcoming year.
If any of this speaks to you, I would love to collaborate and create more with you.
Extra about me- I am also in a band called daarling where I am the vocalist/lyricist and bass player. Find our music here: www.daarlingband.com
