Trestle is pleased to announce a solo exhibition of photographic work by Julia Wilson, curated by Jason Andrew. Julia’s work was selected by Jason Andrew of Norte Maar from almost 400 submissions from our annual open call. This will be the first exhibition of Trestle’s 2019 season, which will focus exclusively on solo exhibitions. “As a curator interested in what’s happening now, it was exciting to get to see artists submissions from around the world applying for this opportunity through Trestle Gallery. Julia Wilson stood out as one who has honed her skills in capturing the world around her. I gravitated to her painterly approach to the image and her unconventional use of her personal computer as camera. There is an intimacy yet universal experience that she captures in her work.” – Jason Andrew, curator
