Julia Agnes

I am a sculptor and photographer based out of Montreal, Canada.

My work can be considered un-beautiful, vulnerable, and its vulnerability, unapologetically confrontational. I’m magnetically drawn to create aging bodies because they have a visible history; lines and imperfections drawing a three-dimensional map of a person’s existence.

The sculptures are raw, unapologetic, questioning what it means to live, grow, and age in a time where everything is geared towards staying young.

I often find myself gravitating to create imperfect people, veering away from the idea of physical flawlessness in favor of persona and mien, perhaps antagonistically to commonly held near universal expectations of physical appearance and youth, especially when it comes to the representation of women.
