About

Yulia Makeyeva is a multidisciplinary artist. She grew up in Russia and now lives in Jersey, Channel Islands. Yulia turned her full attention to art practice at the end of 2019.  Her Philology and Art History background and interest in history are firmly rooted in her art practice. She explores memory, heritage and time, language, boundaries and borders, drawing inspiration from personal experiences and public and private archives.

Yulia is in her final year of a two-year Art and Politics MA program at the Goldsmiths University, London.

Her sculpture Backdrop was exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2024.

Any Time.Now was selected by the human rights organisation International Memorial via the open call in May 2022. After the opening exhibition in Prague on August 2022, this work is currently a part of a touring exhibition Sandarmoh. Where Trees Have Faces
