Emma Long is a multimedia artist, writer, and occasional curator based in Brooklyn, NY, with a practice centered on interiority, mysticism, and the unseen. Her process is driven by an experimental spirit: a rhythmic and intuitive practice informed by the inexpressible- by emotive impulse. Much of her work reflects this abstraction of emotion: a deconstruction of the self and body. Her writing has been published in Marcescent Zine, Runt Magazine, Antithesis Magazine, and Antlers Zine. Artistic work has been featured in Antithesis Magazine, Morningstar Literary, and Muse Zine, to name a few. She has exhibited work in group shows around the Treasure Valley and Brooklyn, and at Flaten Art Museum.

I am the co-founder of Angel Archives: a creative collective and partnership that hosts alternative and inclusive art projects around Brooklyn, New York. Founded in 2025 by Emma Long and Audrey Roloff, the group hosts multidisciplinary exhibitions and projects outside of the accepted art world, fostering original and creative dialogue away from profit-focused industries. Angel Archives works to foster an avant-garde space for celebrating atypical visions of creativity, accessible to artists working outside of traditional economic and cultural structures.
The collective was born out of a lack of space in New York City for artists to show work outside of mainstream and blue-chip spheres. We strive to expand artistic dialogue beyond gallery and museum walls- to enrich Brooklyn’s cultural landscape by allowing early-career and underrepresented artists to show their work to the public and be in conversation with one another. Art must be able to exist under the conditions of honest creativity, challenging dialogue, inclusive community, and caring connection. It is fundamental that artists have the ability to share their visions, ideas, and selves without ties to corporate interests and greater structures of capitalism.
