Julie Ross's classical training in both
ballet and drawing and her powers of intense observation
combined with her anarchic and charming sense of humour,
make this series a masterful example of visual storytelling.
Her figures are playful but they are smart. They are
unaffected, but layered. In that way they are like people -
they are people - and they are Julie, her sister, her family
and her experience. Most importantly, the works tell the
story of a whimsical childhood - a story drawn out by the
hand of a talented artist.
Essay excerpt by Amy Stewart.
Julie Ross graduated from Canterbury University in 2011 with a Masters in painting and in 2005 with a BFA Honors this is her second exhibition at Whitespace and features ceramics, bronzes and drawings.
