Julia Flit is a London-based photographer originally from Kazakhstan. Her work is testament to the whimsical and the ethereal. Flit plays with the fluidity of water, orchestrating and shaping this protean element into a series of reflective mirrors pointed at the subject. Her subjects flow through the visual landscape with weightless ease, as the artist’s imagination opens entryways and passages into the unseen. Of her own work, the artist says it revolves around the concept of ‘timelessness’; according to her ‘there is no young or old water. It’s an arcane concept of the human mind, the closest concept to infinity we can materialise in our thoughts’. She believes water is a medium of infinite reflections and perceptions, and her goal as an artist is to document its choreography of light.
Julia Flit was first taught and guided by her father who gave her her first semi professional camera at the age of thirteen. She studied photography at Blake College and learnt from the mastery of Nick Knight. Since then, Julia has grown an international career and has travelled the world as a professional photographer.’
