Politically significant landscapes
Julia’s research currently utilises notions of political ecologies as a means of interpreting and criticising the messages and effectiveness of art, photography and environmental messaging.
Julia’s practice is informed by ideas of ecology that value the non-human and the non-living with a view to deepening an understanding of human/nature relationships.
Julia is a photographer and writer, exploring the political effects of representing landscape, place and environment.
Julia started her career as a landscape photographer, exhibiting and publishing disorientating images, before moving on to a more overtly political practice.
Julia’s passions include nature and the links between social justice and the natural world.
