Julia Perkin - Prop and detail maker, set dresser.
I live in the vibrant and frenzied city of London where I have lived my whole life, currently finishing a 4 year theatre design course at Wimbledon College of Art. My inspiration draws from certain nostalgic and lethargic imagery; beautiful, delicate, and exquisitely empathetic and subtlety meaningful. To me as an artist I am constantly inspired by artists such as Amadeo Modigliani and Gustav Klimt, to vintage ’shabby-chic’ interior designers to exclusive fashion photo-shoots. I have always been devoted to fairytale and celestial imagery, regardless whether earthly, religious or mythical. As a cellist and musician, from early years my love for all genres of music has always played a great part in my many processes. Since visiting Bologna, Italy, for 4 months on the Erasmus Student Exchange Scheme I have not only discovered a passion for travelling but a love for all things of Italian culture. Through this experience and various other travelling I’ve felt wholly encouraged to continue this interest and observe other ethnicities, cultures and languages.
