hi, i’m jule!
she/her, currently based in Helsinki, FinlandIn my work I explore the connections between physical, emotional and ecological bodies. Between tears and floodings, breathing and increased polarization, care and environmental restlessness. On both a conceptual and material level, I focus on social and ecological issues. I work with found materials and their inherent narratives, with textiles and fungi enzymes, sound and soil, videos, words, pine bark, teeth.
My practice often works with and through the body and I am particularly interested in creating spaces to listen and to feel, to enable resonance, connection and reflection, to touch, to engage, and to bring in-to conversation.
