Julie Curtiss (b.1982) is an emerging artist whose work beautifully examines the impact of identity, femininity and modern culture. It’s true that for many contemporary artists around the world, the mingling of art and femininity draws high attention. The idea of femininity provides artists with access to a generous visual vocabulary, enabling them to produce creative conceptions that offer a direct aesthetic impact to the viewers’ eyes. It renders yet a novel path to blur the line between the formal stereotypes and to give space to new artistic interpretations around this notion. Alternatively, femininity can be seen simply as fun to play with, rejecting miserable preconceptions of the past.
