The Shock of the Now Issue 30
Featured Exhibition Text
Julie Maurin
'(m)other' Solo Exhibition
South Parade
2nd March 2022

This issue’s Featured Exhibition is Julie Maurin’s current solo exhibition ‘(m)other’ at South Parade in Deptford. Julie was part of the unfortunate 2020 cohort of art school students sadly deprived of a physical degree show, so this exhibition is an exciting opportunity to get an overdue insight into the recent Royal College of Art MA Sculpture graduate’s artwork and practice. I first saw her work in South Parade’s past group exhibition ‘“Hope” is the thing with feathers’ where Maurin’s preserved Lactoria cornuta fish adorned with swarovski strass and plastic wings piqued my interest, and was therefore pleased to discover that this well-deserved solo presentation of her work doesn’t disappoint.
