After 15 years Laci Coppins has returned back to her roots of Milwaukee. While away, Coppins worked as both an elementary school teacher and principal. Resigning from her job, she moved to Italy to live, work, and further build her love for art and photography. Currently, she is pursuing her dream as a resident artist with REDLine Milwaukee and extending her photographic projects. Coppins shares this about her work, “In my current projects of alternative processes and portraiture, the images are of people with hidden faces and distorted patterns. My intent is to rouse the viewer with the emotion behind the image- the pose, the attitude or the tension exhibited, rather than the individual.
