Julia Dittberner
Julia Dittberner designs with paper and flowers, ever drawn to negative spaces and positive outlooks. Dittberner hand cuts vintage flora and fauna imagery and sources her own drawings of native botanicals to create analog collages. She meticulously reorganizes these images based on color and pattern to evoke dynamic movement within confined spaces.
After attending art school in Detroit and Ireland, working in various creative positions in Los Angeles and San Francisco, and spending five years in Tokyo studying Ikebana, she now lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
