Julia Sjölin is an artist working between Berlin and Stockholm. In her artist talk within the KHMxMMM series, she will discuss her formulation of signs — in both film and painting — and reflect on notions of surface, depth, and sediment, like water lilies growing from the bottom upward. She will also touch on the cut as a form of connection, the act of falling into and out of images, and the artwork as a continuously refracting object.
