Julia García
The relation to material flow, time, and permeability, is underpinned by the dominance of water’s role in my process. From the highly constructed and controlled environment of Disney to the fabricated ideas of Americana permeating culture and media, in this selection of works, the paintings presented begin to ask questions about what lies at the heart of images meant to propagate fantasy.
-Julia García
Born in Pompano Beach, FL, Cuban American artist Julia Garcia (b. 1992) uses a collage-like application of acrylic and ink into wet raw canvas while painting. Julia received her BFA from School of Visual Art in 2014 and her MFA in 2016 from the Hoffberger School of Painting at Maryland Institute College of Art.
