About The Curator
Julie Graham is an artist based in Massachusetts. Trained as a painter, Graham’s practice also incorporates photography, a medium which she uses to explore the geometry that architecture imposes on nature. In her compositions, she captures man-made environments that are unoccupied by humans, yet show evidence of their presence. They give center stage to the places themselves: the ways in which juxtapositions of light, form, texture, and color lend an unexpected beauty, an air of mystery, and an absolute quiet to temporarily uninhabited spaces. The less they reveal, the more access they provide to the viewer, allowing him or her to enter into the spaces she captures and to navigate them alone.
About The Collection
I am drawn to work that is at once beautiful and conceptually challenging. Quietly subdued and compelling, the works I selected for this collection call attention to the everyday, or the overlooked. But what you see is not necessarily what you get. Upon closer inspection questions, ideas, and stories unfold, making an impact on how we view the world around us.
