Experimental Communication
Julia Renning
Julia is a French-American artist and avid cat lover. She is practicing interdisciplinary film installation and performance. She is a manifester of the divine feminine who works between live performances, theatre, films, and LARP. She has spent four years studying Media Communications at Richmond the American International University in London. Now, she is graduating with her master's in Visual Communications: Experimental Communications at the Royal College of Art. She will be pursuing opportunities in Los Angelas, CA following graduation.
Julia Renning is interested in the boundaries between opposing worlds — the beautiful and the grotesque, the real and the imagined, the physical and the digital. She sees the female body as a vehicle and identity as performative parallels. As well as, interrogates speculative futures through fictional narratives. Her performances highlight and embody the dichotomy of these seemingly opposite ideas.
In her first year, she produced her electives end of term show, A Traditional Evening of Please.
During her time at the RCA, she was Producer of the SU Club, INSTINCTS.
She contributed as Secretary Show Rep in the development of the Vis Com WIP Show.
For the duration of her time at RCA she represented her pathway as a Student Rep for Ex Comm.
This year has been especially challenging for her as she has been struggling to manage her anxiety and depression amongst other obstacles. There were times which tested her willpower and she didn't think she could continue with the RCA; but amongst all odds, here we are.
