Textile Artist, Designer, Engineer.
After receiving her BFA in Textiles from the Rhode Island School of Design, Julia Wright has gone on to develop a dedicated weaving studio practice as well as a professional career in textiles. She has worked with design and engineering for a wide range of textiles including prints, wovens, knits and embroideries for the apparel, home, automotive, and biomedical textile industries.
Her work seeks to understand the paradox of human control over nature, exploring the allure of the grid as a symbol of order imposed on the chaotic natural world.
Currently she is a textile engineer at Cortland Biomedical and has a studio practice located in NY.
