Julie Groves

Julie was born in the UK in 1981. Already a professional classical and contemporary musician, Julie is now completing her creative practice research PhD, Intimacy and Proximity: addressing sound arts as performance.

Julie was nominated for FutureMap in 2013 and was longlisted for the Aesthetica Art Prize 2018 with And so I met my Other’s Other (2017) Acts-ReActs 4, London.

“My work explores notions of performance and audience-ship within sound arts; physicality and intimacy; and notions of subjectivity and the personal.

I create work which negotiates the critical tension between the Self and the Other occurring across visceral and temporal boundaries. In particular, I use the relationship of the ”Other’s Other” as established in my thesis as a critical constellation of dialogic tension.”

She continues a dual career as professional flautist and sound artist.
