Julia Noble

Julia’s work involves putting in place strategies to remove control, to explore the tendencies of process and materials, which introduce uncertainty and separation.  This is followed by her taking back control usually through a construction process. 

Her work addresses the tradition of painting where paint might not even form part of the final work. It involves abstraction but not in the traditional reductive sense but in an expansive way that allows the incorporation of many materials and current technology. 

All Julia’s processes and material investigations provide a portfolio of studio works which are themselves an important aspect of her work.  They represent the plethora of possibilities and stepping stones that ultimately feed into her final pieces.
