Art that cultivates curiosity and wonder // Artist Julie Lucht de Freibruch
Invisible Forces
2023 COLLECTION
What connects us to the places and objects that surround us? What makes us seek out one place instead of another? One item instead of another? The invisible forces that guide our attention, reflect our tastes and pull us towards (or away) intrigue me immensely.
Our unique individuality is a genetic and biological advantage that appears in all animals from humans to bumble bees. What we like and don't like is as a result of our one-of-a-kind biology, environment and culture.
For me, I crave places of safety where curiosity and creativity can flourish. Symbols of these in everyday life are: homes that have been lovingly tended to, well-thought out design, and use genuine craftsmanship; Pottery that is well made and with thought to pattern and use; Gardens that have been landscaped with nature and beauty in mind.
These are examples of where humans have used the best of their abilities to make life better by making better things (thanks Seth Godin). These are the invisible forces that attract me. I wonder if they are similar for you too.

Sizing Guide
ABOUT JULIE
Born in Belgium, Julie Lucht de Freibruch spent her early years in France and England before coming to Australia in 2006. Julie comes from a family of artists, including great-grandfather Ricciotto Canudo (1877-1923), friend of Picasso, Matisse and Jean Cocteau during the Cubist movement in 1910s and 1920s Paris.
Her work is inspired by her local environment, exploring Queensland’s vibrant tropical landscapes, its nature and distinctive buildings. The contrast between man-made and natural forms is a popular theme in her work.
Julie uses fluid acrylics in her paintings, her style inspired by the strong graphic design elements of printmaking, and atmospheric details of illustration.
Her characterful, colourful style has seen her undertake numerous private commissions and she is collected across the world. She lives near Noosa on the Sunshine Coast with her husband and two young children.
