Julie Nagle
Julie Nagle’s current work explores the intimate relationship between ancestry, mortality, and humanities’ place among other species. She appropriates and recasts methods and research from the sciences to explore how they enter our personal lives. Throughout her practice, Nagle interweaves seemingly disparate ideologies, carving out complex spaces to re-imagine what we think we understand.
Julie Nagle has exhibited work at Penn State Altoona; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; and Socrates Sculpture Park, New York, among others.
