User:Julianna Thompson

Julianna Thompson is a documentary and fine art photographer. Growing up in the rich story telling culture of Tennessee she was drawn to the visual story. After completing her BA in photojournalism, she went on to finish her MFA in fine art photography from the Academy of Art University where her stories evolved into abstracted surreal dream journeys. Thompson’s work is focused on symbolic communication, mythic rituals and the element of the unseen. Through dreams she seeks to tap into the universal language of symbolism to explore the larger shared journeys of life. Thompson works to encourage a dialog about the commonality of connection through life experience and the desire to probe our unconscious for deeper inner truths and the path back to self.
