Arcuri is interested in human connection with the natural world. Arcuri is typically drawn to the seemingly mundane or overlooked subjects in nature.. She then plays with these spaces and scenes in unexpected ways, asking the viewer to re-examine their relationship with the everyday environment. Arcuri often shoots with large format cameras, a nod to the history of the medium.
