Name: Julie
I am a retired teacher who has recently 2003 completed BA [ Camberwell] & MA [ Middx ] Visual Arts in sculpture, photography and video. I also live at bottom of Crouch Hill. I was an International Colour Award Nominee, USA in 2006. . My Work conceptually concerns age / identity & how one is viewed by state as one grows older "I am rapidly becoming a spectre " Roland Barthes . This links to painting's Impression and abstraction and history of the early moving image / narrative. It concerns the blurring the boundaries between fine art and design through the conceptual process and, the fact that I 'sit on the cusp', linking my ideas through culture and materials. I believe art can be the found object, moment and situation. Abstraction, design and colour are fundamental to my work. I enjoy constructing with photography both within the composition and with the arrangement of the finished piece. My philosophy towards the found and constructed moment object and structure is crucial to how I think, devise and operate: to educate subliminally , socially ,not just in the finished piece, but in the process.
