Yulia Mahr
Yulia Mahr is an interdisciplinary artist working across lens-based media, sculpture, and installation. Rooted in her history of displacement, her practice explores human existence, transformation, and interconnectedness, often addressing themes of the body, gender, spirituality, and the passage of time.
Her work engages with social, political, and environmental issues, questioning representation, ownership, and models beyond capitalism. Drawing on her background in theatre, politics, and visual anthropology, Mahr bridges art and social science in her practice.
She is also known for collaborations with composer Max Richter; together, they co-founded Studio Richter Mahr in Oxfordshire, a multidisciplinary, sustainably focused creative space.
