Bid the Gap

Introducing Julia Pomeroy

Julia Pomeroy creates vivid images of people and places, using bold colours and textures to bring them to life. Her paintings aim to show the beauty and monotony of our daily lives, making us question our habits and routines. Inspired by impressionist and fauvist art, she combines bright colours with darker truths. Her recent works explore the contrast between nature and the digital world, reflecting on the distractions and ignorance of modern life. Pomeroy's paintings invite viewers to piece together the stories within her artwork.
