About Emily

Baltimore City
Emily Cucalon is a printmaker who works primarily in letterpress printing. Her work investigates the connections built between places and memories, testing the boundaries of what it means to belong and the complexities of migration. As a third generation Italian–American, Cucalon's work draws connections to the country and culture her family left behind. This has led to the exploration of multiculturalism in her art while inspiring time working abroad.
