JULIA BORNEFELD

Was born in Kiel, Germany, in 1963, but for several years has lived in Brunico, Italy.
She has always utilised different genres, drawing extensively from photography, painting, installations and performances, all harmoniously linked and intended to achieve an intensification of expression, an emotional climax.
A common thread winds around the depths of introspection to form an eclectic weave that portrays the unsettling, non-conformist
and multifaceted sensitivity of this artist, who in recent years has amazed us with carousels, cheerful on the outside but disquieting below the surface, prostheses of human body parts given an unnatural, biomorphous identity, photographs that immortalise the henomenalistic development of alien metamorphoses and orbiting, blurred, accelerated movements.
The ideas for her works are also based on an examination of the socio-cultural context in which they will be displayed, involving an attentive, profound sociological study. This is why the interaction with the public represents the climax of her artistic work.
