Julia Buese is a conceptual artist who lives and works in Berlin. She infuses her works with a focus on observation and contemplation, conveying neutral connotations with subtle humor throughout her pieces. Julia intervenes in familiar contexts, deliberately using titles to open up space for new meanings. In her cohesive body of works, repetition serves as a tool to explore the subtle variations and emotional nuances of recurring objects, with each piece remaining uniquely distinct. Through the interplay of inflection and form, she meticulously questions and visualizes her perception—standing at the intersection of personal and social connections. Her work explores how everyday objects and routines shape identity and reflect a changing world.
