Manage episode 479818408 series 3480766
Exploring the culture of construction Artist Julia Campisi reworks and rewrites how we see things in our everyday world. Primarily being known for her collage work Julia shines a new light on overlooked objects and gives them a new identity. One that reveals itself in unique ways. Orchestrating her interdisciplinary skills to new depths using design, photography, collage and sculpture to create a new narrative on our built culture of self and why we exist.
With a background in photography from Concordia University, Toronto Metropolitan University, and Mcmaster for Political Science. Campisi reshapes our ascribed environments and changes the lens we're used to. Refocusing it into absurdity and fantasy, she draws you in to question the ideal or feeling, and allows it to live as a stand-in alongside our built world.
Known for her lace like collage work, Campisi repurposes and uses industrial motifs, with daily tools like resin and acrylic to convey the necessary translucency from their tactile nature. With her fragmented collection of images she cultivates and challenges how images migrate culturally, our future uncertainty, and the commodity of beauty.
