"a stupendous achievement of minimalist, conceptual art that ought to forever lay to rest the idea that such work is no more than a dry intellectual exercise. This is art of unflinching intelligence, great passion and overwhelming emotional impact."
    Glenn McNatt, The Baltimore Sun

"a conceptual visionary...uniquely brainy-funny-edgy-naughty style...Julia is an interdisciplinary maker, switching deftly between performance, video, film, photography, and printmaking. We love the way Julia's images make us think, shudder and laugh, sometimes all at once."
    Betsy Boyd, Baltimore Fishbowl
