Within these pages, lies my view of the world – slivers of its truth, beauty, impermanence, and mystery – as seen through the lens of a vintage Polaroid Land Camera. – Jen Ervin, author and artist, The Arc
Jen Ervin (b.1971) is an American artist currently working in the medium of photography. Her recent work, The Arc, bridges unique polaroid prints, measured in seasons and repetition, with experimental films to create a rhythmic exploration of place. It was born out of time spent with her family near their historic cabin set deep in the woods of South Carolina, and continued over a period of six years, 2012-2018.
