Antarctica…. sublime…

It seems for me a bit surreal that only a few months ago I was an adventurer in one of the most exquisite and extreme places on Earth. Antarctica.

I have now had some space between my journey into the cold and sublime spaces of this magical place, and still my memories are strong; and the sense of wonder and yearning to return seems to be amplifying.

I have only recently begin revisiting some of my images…playing really… just going through folders and witnessing my response to them..and as I look at my photographs asking myself the same question “What part of me is…..”. Sometimes I don’t have an answer. Sometimes I just have a memory of my feeling whilst I was there. Sometimes I uncover something within myself which I had never recognised before. This process for me has been refreshing and challenging at the same time.

I have found revisiting my images to also be quite a surprise for me…discovering how really beautiful and powerful some of my images are. The landscape is spectacular, so that is a great starting point; but what I have come across in my folders of rescued images are some hidden gems – ones which for me have an element of the sublime. Ones which speak of the magic of the landscape and of my experience and connection within it and within myself.

Over the coming weeks I will be sharing some of these images which to me are speaking of the sublime. Click the image below to enlarge.

About the Author: Julie
I am a Journeywoman. I live my life as an explorer. An adventurer. An Observer. An Artist. There is no differentiation between how I live my life and the art that is an expression of it. It is through my experience adventuring the unknown, that I learn more about myself. My aim through this connection is to live where my expression is fully in alignment with the essence of who I am. “In the field of Fine-Art Photography, Julie stands apart from others with the way she sees the world and expresses her connection within it. Julie Stephenson’s photographs are sublime. Her work is an expression of her deep connection; and a gift to the world.”

  • Want to be a solo warper? Today is warping day and I can’t be at both ends at the same time, so I worked out what to do. A perfect solution, but doesn’t save me from going to the gym though! Hehehe 

Here I’m using my fabulous Ashford Rigid Heddle 48”/120cm loom. @ashford_wheels_looms I love it! Simple, and I can weave all by my myself! 

You can save this tip for future reference, and for more ideas, and even a few giggles on the way; come follow along!
  • Want to see what is absolutely necessary for a weaver? Bring your bestie and come follow along to find out!
  • Like to make things? Want some inspo? Just a little bit stuck for ideas for your next project? 

Appreciate handmade imperfection, experimentation, beautiful materials and the human traces left behind by making. Well then; welcome! :) 

Let your creative bestie know and come follow along.
