Elle Muliarchyk is a New York-based artist who takes photos, makes films and creates some of the most beautiful GIFs the internet has ever seen.
Each of Muliarchyk's GIFs tells a story. Malaika Firth - the first black model to appear in a Prada campaign in 20 years - kissing a frog, draws a link to the first black Disney Princess, the frog princess, Tiana.
In her latest series, Muliarchyk explores the role make-up and beauty plays in the lives of women, transforming models into Barbie and Antoinette.
Through her work, Muliarchyk utilizes the GIF as a form of "universal language", taking the models in her studio on a personal journey.
"GIFs channel raw human emotion better than words or images," says Muliarchyk.
