JULIA MEYER

ARTIST STATEMENT

My work moves between collage, painting, and object art. I experiment with materials I find in everyday life – fragments of paper, scraps of fabric, natural textures – and transform them into new visual worlds. These combinations emerge intuitively, often in the moment, leaving space for discovery and interpretation.

I am fascinated by the intersection of transience and memory: how we look at things we have long overlooked, and the stories they still hold. In my work, I search for moments in which the ordinary takes on new meaning – sometimes through minimal interventions, sometimes through deliberate layering and deconstruction.

My artistic practice is deeply shaped by process. Each piece arises in dialogue between material, form, and my own inner impulse. It is less about realizing a finished image in my mind, and more about allowing myself to be surprised and making the process itself visible.

With my art, I want to create spaces where viewers feel curious, pause, and form a personal connection to the unexpected combinations – perhaps a moment of recognition, perhaps a new way of seeing.
