Sculpture Accepted
Sculptures from two of Julia’s series have been selected for publication, “Tethered Spirit” will be in the exhibition.
“FractAlien Agglomeration” 40″ x 18″ x 12″ which is the first of the FractAlien Series=Fractured Alien. The FractAlien is a creature with an incomplete, fractured skin that can be peered through to see within to the structural skeleton. This sculpture is an agglomeration of various body parts: hand, head, thorax, and foot. The base is found rusty steel. More sculpture from this series can be viewed at FineArtSculpt.com.
“Tethered Spirit” 13″ x 10″ x 5″, a mixed media sculpture from Julia’s Spirit series, represents a rising from wreckage. The base is a found piece of aluminum frame. More sculpture from this series can be viewed at FineArtSculpt.com.
As with these two sculptures, Julia frequently incorporates discarded found artifacts transforming her sculpture into edgy new fine art that retains a history.
