Where Nature, Art, Technology, and Sustainability Meet
Julie Alice Chappell
Julie’s unique art is transformed from discarded electronics and computer components into exquisite insect sculptures, blending environmental activism with creative expression.
Inspired by nature, based on accuracy, fact and knowledge and prompt by the unsustainable practice of planned obsolescence, her work highlights the impact of electronic waste on natural environments.
Each sculpture is diligently crafted, starting with the disassembly of gadgets, and culminating in the delicate hand painting of recycled plastics to mimic the intricate beauty of insect wings.
Enhanced digitally, these pieces not only celebrate the beauty of nature but also showcase the ingenuity of human and technological collaboration. Through her art, Julie advocates for a more sustainable future, offering a poignant commentary on the interaction between digital methods and traditional artistic practices.
Perfect! Just perfect!
