About Julia Shilo

 
 
  • Biography
    Julia Shilo is a Ukrainian artist based in Bulgaria, specializing in portraits and figurative painting.
    Her work blends traditional and contemporary techniques, incorporating mixed media and collage. She integrates fragments of antique books, sheet music, stamps, and other vintage materials, creating a dialogue between history and modern expression while emphasizing timeless human emotions.
    Reflecting on the lost aesthetics of past eras, Julia explores themes of nostalgia, memory, and identity through symbolic elements.

    Julia's works have found homes in the USA, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Turkey, Germany, Bulgaria, Ukraine, and Russia.

    She exhibits and continues to evolve her artistic practice, creating thought-provoking, emotionally resonant pieces that bridge past and present.

    Other important milestones in her artistic career include participation in the London Biennale (2025), a silver award at the international virtual art exhibition Amazing Animals 2025 (Camelback Gallery) and publication of her artwork on the cover of Visual Art Journal (May 2025).
