Is an actress, director, physical dramaturg and teacher from Buenos Aires, Argentina. She studied Sociology at UBA and classical and physical theater at EMAD, Belisario, Club de Cultura and Movement Theater Studio. After that she kept learning from different directors and mentors, who provided her with a wide variety of techniques and resources that oriented her career to the world of performative/non lineal Theater. From the beginning she learned about collective work and creating original pieces. Since 2013 she lives in New York. From the start she realized that the only way of staying here was by finding a way to connect with the others, a way of communication. She has been fortunate to create collective works from scratch with companies that she founded in collaboration with other fellow artists: Lampazo Group, Las Pibas Theater Company, and THEATER TO THE PEOPLE (awarded, among Kate Bell, with the 2019 BAC Grant and it is a recipient of the Sokoloff Arts Creative Fellowship at Town Stages 2020). The three groups started from discussions related to what they wanted to say about society, along with improvisations and the use of simple and economic objects. Those groups have the need to talk about hierarchy, personal relationships, vulnerability, exposition and the essential needs that every human being has. These experiences reaffirmed her belief that theater is a medium of political and ideological communication capable of sending messages that open debate and allow societies to rethink their issues. On 2016 she was selected to participate in EMERGENYC Artist Residency (Hemispheric New York Emerging Performers Program). She performs regularly in completely dissimilar venues. From big theaters to basements, houses and different countries. Just to name a few, Julia has been featured at: Metropolitan Opera, St. Ann’s Warehouse, CPR (Center of Performance Research) HERE Arts Center, Dixon´s place, El Bastión (Puerto Rico), Gran Teatro Liceo (Barcelona), Knockdown Center, She has performed internationally in Argentina, Puerto Rico, Brasil, Thailand, Japan, Edinburgh and Barcelona.
