The art exhibitions are the results of research cycles. As a painter, Julia Theek mainly works with airbrush , spraying from the "can" and with spray guns. The combination of the mostly 4- to 12-part template sets places the subjects in various iconic and symbolic references or references. The peculiarity of the work consists in the interpretation of traditional motifs with aesthetic experiences of the MTV generation and stylistic devices of street art . Since 1998 he has worked on sculptures, initially classically made of marble and since 2010 assemblages made mainly of upcycled material. In order to positively anchor the idea of ​​sustainability in art production, she runs the Upcyclingart.blog.
