Emily Prince is a recent graduate of Stanford University, and a post graduate candidate at the University of California, Berkeley. Most notably, Prince's ongoing project entitled American Servicemen and Women Who Have Died in Iraq and Afghanistan (but Not Including the Wounded, nor the Iraqis nor the Afghans) was recently featured in the 52nd International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, curated by Rob Storr. A work in progress, Prince offers a detailed rendering of the human cost of the United States' intervention into the Middle East. To date, the project is comprised of over 4000 hand-drawn portraits of the American service men and women who have lost their lives in conflict. www.pica.org
