Julia Scott Green is a visual artist, arts worker and arts writer from Meanjin/Brisbane, where she graduated from the Queensland College of Art & Design.
Green is interested in the ‘magical realism’ of our contemporary media environment. She creates speculative image worlds from materials found and made ‘IRL’, which are then reassembled in the non-place of digital software. Her work responds to the increasingly porous boundary between ‘fact’ and ‘fiction’; ‘organic’ and ‘synthetic’; ‘real’ and ‘virtual’ under hyper-mediated conditions.
Alongside her art practice, Green works professionally on projects in contempoary art, cultural engagement and education. She has taught and coordinated lessons in photography, media studies, and visual art within universities, schools, government funded programs, and community art organisations. More recently, Green has worked with internationally renowned contemporary art exhibitions Dark Mofo and the Biennale of Sydney. She is currently based in Eora / Sydney, living and working on the unceeded lands of the Gadigal people.
