Graduating from Michaelis School of Fine Art, Julia found the spark to create a new platform for emerging artists during her studies in London. Though she's worked at local galleries such as Zeitz MOCAA and the Norval Foundation, where she had immersed herself in the local art world, Julia struggled to see where she belonged. ‘I learned a great deal, yet I still couldn’t quite see where I fit within the landscape,’ she reflects.
