About JMAL MAL
Julie Mallis is a multimedia artist who employs a vivid sense of color, illusionistic forms, and humor in order to challenge perception. She explores themes relating to reality and its permeability through depictions of surreal environments and dreamscapes.
Her artwork addresses crucial contemporary political and social issues with a critical lens that aspires to both catharsis and change. Her anthropological studies inform her ideas through the methodology and framework inherent to this sociocultural discipline. Through studying other identities, ideologies, cultures and performance rituals she hopes to both learn and teach about how these can expand the borders of the human experience.
She hopes to offer perspectives that envision and communicate alternative realities where the supposedly impossible is realized. As a synesthete, Mallis' artwork draws upon the intersection of the senses, color, and shape. Her paintings are colorful, abstract works that recall the sublimity of Rothko, while her video work incorporates performance, audio, and a keen sense of geometry and color to create a moving, breathing abstract painting on the screen.
