DescriptionFrom the portfolio forward: "Julia Shepley's sculpture and installation work is con­structed of carved wood and materials including paper, gut and fiber. Through the repetition of related natural forms, the artist creates works that balance a sense of substance and weight with a suggestion of motion and flight. She is a graduate of Boston University School of Fine Arts and maintains a studio in the Brickbottom Artist Building in Somerville. Shepley's print, created with a combination of linoleum and wood block, consists of layered images of butterfly wings in motion. It was made in conjunction with her work on a sculpture installation for her April 1995 solo exhibition with the Boston Sculptors at Chapel Gallery."
