Julia Flux

 lives and works in Berlin and Andalusia Spain

At the intersection of performance, dance, environmental science and spiritual ecology, Flux’s artistic work is deeply informed by ancient knowledge and speculative futures - exploring the interconnectedness as well as the frictions between humans and nature.

To weave connections of these space-time-matters she works often in remote locations -such as deserts and mining sites - where she reveals and actively transforms underlying myths with the aim for collective,trans-planetary healing and health. Re-imaginaging and re-enchanting desirable ecological, sonic, bodily and more-than-human futures.

Flux’s work challenges the blurred lines between human, animal, plant and technology, critically reflecting on growth and evolution paradigms. In her central work as a dancer and ecologist, her practice spans fictionfilm, landart, installations and performance, often incorporating experimental sculptural elements. By combining natural elements with industrial materials, she creates raw, yet fictional scenarios which are recalling us back into sensual communities of practice in reciprocity with the land while sheding light onto processes of industrialization, commodification and desertification. Her work is a form of commoning within science and art, breaking down disciplinary boundaries and fostering a collective re-enchantment with the world.

Central to her recent research is the human-sun relationship, exploring how solar forces shape bodily perception, communication, and myth-making. As both a life-giving and disruptive force, the Sun governs biological rhythms and climate cycles while coronal mass ejections (CMEs) threaten global communication and energy systems. Drawing from feminist sci-fi writers like Octavia Butler, Julia examines how solar activity influences not just survival but also future societies, cultural narratives, and embodied knowledge.

Flux collaborates with scientists, ecologists, and other artists to create media that are questioning the cultural conditioning of our senses and perceptions, constantly highlighting the body and nature as a vessel for transformational processes. Her installations and performances activate vivid and raw fictional scenarios that provoke incisive questions about the human,culture and world building; exampled in her recent work TERRA/// - a landart dance and movement performance piece which embraces the concept of an animated and vibrant world where every form of matter is alive and is therefore a broader feminist and ecological effort to reclaim the means of reproduction—material, spiritual, and communal—for a life-centric future.

She is the founder of MOJOSTUDIOS, an inclusive gallery that empowers marginalized voices, and the creator of CADAVRE EXQUIS, a project and exhibition series that tackles ecological justice and spiritual ecology. Her work also delves into post-natural, queer, and spiritual ecologies, alchemy, and mythology, with the aim of rewilding our collective myths and expanding our understanding of spacetime and community. Dedicated to reimagine a more-than-human peaceful trans-planetary coexistance she co-created the art project CURRENT FUTURES, highlighting the deserts of the worlds and their extremity as laboratories for testing these desirable ancient futures.

Challeging the growth-paradigma she questioned the status quo in her co-authorship in the book "Economy without Growth?!", accomplished her Degree in the Dance Intense Program of the Berlin Dance Institute 2022, exhibited during CTM Berlin in Funkhaus Berlin and researched on desertification processes, electromagnetism and nomadic lifeforms in the Naqab/hebrew Negev Desert, and in the Atacama desert of Chile.
