Julie Hrnčířová
Born in the Czech Republic.
Julie Hrnčířová is a Czech artist currently based in Oslo. A graduate of the École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie d'Arles, she has exhibited her work in several venues, including the Rencontres de la Photographie d'Arles, KÖSK Gallery in Oslo, and Fotografihuset in Oslo. In 2022, she held a solo exhibition entitled "Urban Poetism" at Fotografiens Hus in Oslo and was also featured at the Nordic Light Festival in Kristiansund. In January 2023, she presented a solo exhibition entitled "This Might Be Useful One Day" at Atelier Josefa Sudka Gallery in Prague. In November 2023, the artist exhibited her series "Everyday Sculptures" at PhotoSaint Germain in Paris, curated by Raphaëlle Stopin. In March 2025, she completed a residency at the Rouen Normandie Photographic Center, where she collaborated with students from a woodworking high school and created a series of photographs and installations. In April 2025, she opened a solo exhibition, "The Secret Lives of Bird," at the Jedna Dva Tři Gallery in Prague.
Hrnčířová frequently works with installations and sculptures, incorporating found materials, wood, metal, fabric, and ceramics, and explores the dialogue between different media. Her artistic practice focuses on public space, urban environments, chance encounters, still lifes, and abandoned objects. Her playground is the city: she often captures objects and traces left by strangers and passersby, as well as remnants of materials and objects discovered during her walks. She explores the transformation of European cities and their urban landscapes, focusing on the photography of architectural details, found or abandoned objects, and construction debris. The artist searches for elements we tend to overlook in the hectic and noisy pace of urban life.
