Born in Quebec City, Julie Couture grew up in the countryside, which instilled in her a deep love of nature. Over the years, she developed an interest in and curiosity about urban life. Her academic path led her to American universities where she studied art, costume design for theatre at St. Lawrence University, fashion at Parsons University in New York City, and furniture design at the Rhode Island School of Design. She earned a master's degree in sculpture and drawing from the Ontario College of Art and Design in Toronto, where she received awards such as the Women's Art Association of Canada Award.
Having found her medium, Julie has devoted herself entirely to photography since 2011 and is currently pursuing a program at Concordia University to refine her digital art techniques.
Her captivating images are transformed and reconstructed using techniques of transparency and fragmentation to recreate depth through her vision of a constantly evolving world.
Julie's photographic work has gained a growing reputation following solo exhibitions at Scott Yetman Design, Vilaine Victoire, and other group collaborations. In addition to over a hundred clients, she has also been commissioned to create custom works for Louwana Creek, Pier 2, the Pomerleau Group (a unique piece entitled Lignes Portantes, measuring 66 feet x 7 feet), and Warwick Le Crystal - Montreal for the production of the artwork Alanis Obomsawin.
