Jullian Young is an experimental media artist based in Chicago, where she is an Assistant Professor at Northern Illinois University. She works across an array of technologies including 3D modeling and animation, video art, sonic art, visual programming, data visualization, digital fabrication, and interactive media. She has exhibited her work in the US and internationally at venues such as Meow Wolf Convergence Station, VivaTech Paris, the Contemporary and Digital Art Fair, Criatech festival in Portugal, Video Art Miden in Greece, the Ars Electronica Festival, and the Listasafn Árnesinga Art Museum in Iceland.
Young’s work is preoccupied with the notion of networked systems, and our participation as a species with our surrounding landscapes. Her artwork seeks to make connections between ecosystems and organisms that often go unnoticed, and challenge the dynamics of care, control, and power in an interwoven network of creatures that ultimately necessitates balance.
