Who conquers whom in the battle between life and death? The juxtaposition of flourishing life with lurking death in Julie Wolfe’s artwork addresses the artist’s preoccupation with corruptive elements that challenge the strength of nature. Through her artwork, Wolfe blurs the lines between good and evil, tranquility and violence, and decay and regeneration, portraying these forces as less antagonistic and more interconnected than their definitions suggest.
