These Old Shoes
Julie usually presents semi-representational and abstract paintings exploring subjects such as
landscape, aerial views and microscopic images.
Inspired by living and working in an old cobbler’s, Julie’s first installation focuses on the
theme of memory and history of place. Her casts of shoes, (the shoes kindly donated by the local
community), use of the old workbench (the original bench used by Dennis Edwards) and sound, explore
the nature of the place and the memories it evokes.
Julie has exhibited nationally and internationally. She was Artist in Residence at The
Tricycle Gallery in London for four years, worked in India for two years and is currently working
from The Last Gallery Studio. Julie also curates The Last Gallery exhibition programme, works in
adult education in Carmarthen and provides a series of art weekends and painting days from The Last
Gallery.
