About 

Julia is a visual artist & photographer born in Germany but raised globally with a background in photography and the performing arts.

Since completing her Masters in Photojournalism/ Documentary Photography at London College of Communication in 2012, Julia has had her work featured in publications such as the BBC and Aesthetica Magazine and has taken part in various exhibitions & festivals worldwide. In 2021 she was shortlisted for the Sony World Photography Awards and most recently got an honourable mention in the Julia Margaret Cameron Award in 2022.

She is drawn to questioning society's relationship to the evolution of media and its effect on culture and our individual and collective identity. Through her process she seeks to unveil a deeper meaning and symbolism while creating a space for connection and healing. Julia expresses her findings in a form of conceptual concepts, collective observations, self-portraiture and portraiture, using a variety of processes.
