About | Julia Schiller

Julia Schiller was born in 1980 and is a photographer and freelance art director based in Berlin, Germany.
In her work she explores notions of silence and chaos, coincidence, freedom, choice and echoes thereof –
questioning fragile human idiosyncrasies and variables such as alienation and intimacy, rationality and instinct.
Her photographic work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and featured in a range of online publications.
Her design work has received international awards.

Together with Oliver Schneider she is the founding editor of “Actual colors may vary” {ACMV} –
an international online magazine for contemporary photography,
and the founder of “Local Colors May Vary (LCMV)” – a series of curated, themed slideshows
combining contemporary photography with live music by international artists.
