Julia A. Rich

About

Julia A. Rich is a multifaceted contemporary artist, designer, and illustrator based in Melbourne, Australia. Her prismatic and surreal artwork creates a flamboyant universe filled with bright colors, strange chimerical animals, otherworldly humanoids, and female protagonists as guardians of the imagination. Drawing from kitsch and femme aesthetics, including 1980s toys, cartoon characters, and 1970s sci-fi, her work evokes nostalgia and child-like wonder while exploring Asian-Australian identities, Filipino heritage, and themes of healing generational immigration trauma through a tender, fantasy lens.[1][2][4]
