Julia Christie is an environmental artist whose latest body of paintings collectively explore becoming air.

Julia is a contemporary artist based in Kirikiriroa/Hamilton, New Zealand. She holds a Master of Art with Distinction (Visual art/Painting). 

Her enduring interest lies in the interface of the environment and human agency. Posthuman theory and philosophy provide the theoretical framework for her work.

“Making art at the time of environmental crisis is very much grappling with what our relationship to nature is and how nature and culture are intertwined. In this context I am forced to question my place in it and my orientation to it.”
