Julie Cockburn is London-based artist who works with found images and objects, transforming them into new works of art.
Using her own personal visual language, Cockburn embellishes carefully sourced second-hand photographs with embroidery, collage, screen printing and painting to produce her ongoing series of portraits and landscapes. Cockburn studied at the Chelsea School of Art and received a BA from the Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design in Sculpture. Her work is in the collections of the Nottingham Castle Museum and Art Gallery, Pier 24, and the Yale Center for British Art, among others.
