About
Julia is an artist and educator based in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn. Her practice emerges from meditations on self and ecosystem, and is informed by her love of comics, architecture, and abstract expressionism.
Julia hails from Pittsburgh and moved to New York in 2014 to study architecture at Cooper Union. Throughout her education and following it, Julia involved herself in design projects across the city. After graduation she co-founded an art and design collective, DNA which was honored to receive Space Saloon’s Desaturated fellowship, as well as Taller Ken’s Fundamentals design fellowship.
With time, Julia’s design practice evolved to include and finally focus on painting both as a vehicle for personal expression and exploration, and eventually of community building. Painting emerged in her life as a means to process emotional transformations and re-center and expand personal identity. Intuitively she sought to share what she was experiencing in the studio, and began leading creative workshops and painting events throughout New York.
