Julie Daleyden is an illustrator and textile designer who grew up in northern of France and has lived in Lille for the last twenty years.
From an early age, she knew her "thing" would be the art world.
Her parents enrolled her in art school from the age of 6. This gave her the opportunity to discover different techniques: drawing, pottery and engraving.
As a child, Julie also spent a lot of time at her grandparents', notably in her grandmother's sewing workshop: fabric and beautiful materials quickly became part of her creative life.
At the age of 16, she studied at the Beaux Arts in Belgium and immediately felt at home in her natural element.
Today, her studio is on the second floor of her home in Lille. Her printmaking studio is located in a creative space / Espace d'art contemporain in Lasécu (Lille).
Julie has been working for 15 years for various textile, clothing, decoration and toy brands.
In parallel, of course, with the creation of her own projects: essential for her self-fulfillment!
Textile motifs allow her to tell "stories on fabric".
At home, Julie surrounds herself with the works of artist friends, and creates little stories for herself through objects and furniture she's hunted down or that belonged to people important to her.
Each object has its own value!
So she keeps all kinds of things that might be useful to her for creation or inspiration...
Whatever the technique (engraving, drawing, ceramics, sewing, etc.), Julie loves volume and being close to the material.
In her notebooks, she draws little characters who travel to different worlds, on her engraving plates or on ceramics.
Julie draws her inspiration from travel, books, objects, traditional costumes, carnivals, Inuit art, sculpture, music, art brut and naive art...
