Largely informed by contemporary poetry and the history of auto-ethnography, Julia Sharpe makes moving images and immersive installations that plumb the relationship between affect and environment. Her work is invested in issues surrounding the precarious structures of daily, domestic life, especially in relation to her childhood in the American South. She is a first year PhD student in the Department of Art Film and Visual Studies and holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
