Julie Westermans research is split into two halves, one concerned with innovative public art projects and the other led by concerns with the relationship between the virtual space of the computer generated event and the physical presence of the sculptural object. The final works explore the experience of the space in between these two positions.

Working with film, animation, drawing and sculpture the current research engages with the pervading anxiety over global warming using images of structural failure and climatic events
