ABOUT
Julia Greenburger is an artist whose work consists of drawings, paintings, videos, sculptures, and clothing. Her work shifts freely between mediums, while her approach remains steadily grounded in a collage-like framework. There is often a discovery of surprising or urgent resonance, found by relating seemingly disparate subjects. The sentiment puts forth, ‘Isn’t it so distinctly human; our ability to understand the world through esoteric metaphor and conceit?’ Her process always involves a cycle of foraging (for images, symbols, and ideas), and then supplanting the yield into her cherished arsenal of systems, surfaces and stories. She strives for the viewer to be struck with an intense urge to possess, consume, avoid, control, enter or embody some aspect of the artwork.
