About

Julia is an abstract fiber artist based in Southeastern Wisconsin. She weaves with primarily natural materials, such as wool and cotton, on handmade frame looms. She then sews into the tapestry with a variety of materials. Openings are left during the weaving process to show the inner structure of the piece, adding to the layered nature of her work.

Fueled by a deep appreciation for the versatility and intricacy of fiber as a medium, Julia uses weaving and sewing to explore the interplay between texture, form, and color in her abstract compositions. Her work serves as a visual exploration of the possibilities of fiber as a means for artistic expression. Julia is inspired by industrial spaces and mid-century modern aesthetics, and lovingly calls her work “mid-century cozy.” 

Julia earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s Peck School of the Arts in 2009.
