Artist Julianne Marangi

Biography

ARTIST STATEMENT Art, Both liberating and rehabilitating-is for me, the most effective means of self-expression. The notion of achieving harmony with not only oneself, but also with the outside world, is the foundation of my work. Its inevitable that people will experience hardships and hurdles as they go through life; however the way you deal with and overcome those obstacles is what truly defines you as a person. Losing my father to cancer at a young age as well as traveling and meeting new people throughout the world has profoundly influenced me. I have learned that there are positive and negative energies in the universe. My heart has been broken, and spirits/emotions have been through highs and lows, but I have focused on being a positive person and the impact has been amazing.
