Australia based UK artist Julee spent years relocating internationally many times. Continually breaking ties and beginning again inspires her technique of deconstruction and reinvention of paint as a material.
Thoughts that paint could be capable of independent existence from the canvas resulted in her process of painting on plastic to enable subsequent removal when dry. Julee exploits the inherent flexibility to explore her interests in textile, collage, and sculptural techniques.
Intricately detailed works are the result of many hours of meticulous cutting, layering and gluing. Ultimately, Julee’s core aim is to generate conversation about the nature of painting and to challenge expectations of what a painting can be.
Both of my rippled wall sculptures Minutes to Midnight and Liquid Sunshine have been chosen by an art consultancy in Singapore to grace the walls of a new hotel in Sydney.
Both works can be found in the restaurant at Hotel Capella and will form part of an Australian strong art collection which features throughout the hotel spaces.
