Born in 1981, lives and works in Brussels.
As a multidisciplinary artist, Julie Krakowski places materials at the heart of her research process. The multiplicity of gestures involved and the testing of materials form the basis of a language that is both complex and intuitive. His works suggest an ambivalence. A tension arises in the relationship between desire and repulsion, between what fascinates and what disturbs. To develop her approach, she works with flexible materials, which she hybridizes with other media. Her current work combines different materials with glass spinning and sound. Julie invites dialogue between a range of notions: the passage of time, our intimate relationship with sensation and memory, and physicality. Through a fluid sculptural process, she explores the interstitial zones between hard and soft, contour and form, gesture and habit. Her studio is located at POELP, a creative platform and experimental space for artists.
