Julia Fullerton-Batten è nata nel 1970 a Brema, in Germania. Vive e lavora a Londra.

Le sue immagini fotografiche sono caratterizzate da una narrazione visiva complessa che combina un uso sapiente della messa in scena a sofisticate tecniche di illuminazione, dall’effetto altamente cinematografico. Fondamentale nel lavoro di Fullerton-Batten è la sua capacità di concepire e sviluppare un totale controllo e attenzione al dettaglio nella pianificazione delle sue fotografie e nei vari processi di pre-produzione, riprese e post-produzione.

Nelle sue storie c’è sempre una sospensione del tempo, spesso con una sottesa violenza psicologico-sensuale che ci attrae e respinge. L’uso da parte di Fullerton-Batten di luoghi insoliti, ambientazioni altamente creative e modelli presi dalla strada, conferiscono alle sue opere una tensione visiva e un mistero che ci inducono a riesaminare continuamente l’immagine, alla ricerca di contenuti e significati sempre nuovi. 

A partire dal 2005, la sua ricerca prosegue per grandi cicli di opere che ruotano intorno a temi specifici. Il primo progetto, Teenage Stories (2005), racconta il passaggio dall’adolescenza all’età adulta rappresentando i disagi e le paure della pubertà. L’ultimo progetto, Old Father Thames (2018-2024), è invece un’ode epica al Tamigi di Londra in cui, attraverso una serie di meticolosi tableaux, l’artista reinventa numerose storie e leggende che si sono riversate sulle rive del fiume. 

Le opere di Fullerton-Batten sono presenti in importanti collezioni, come la National Portrait Gallery di Londra, il Musée d’Elysee di Losanna e la Parliamentary Art Collection, Houses of Parliament di Londra. Le sue fotografie sono state esposte presso istituzioni internazionali, tra cui: Centre Pompidou, Parigi; Museum of Contemporary Art, Shanghai; Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid; National Portrait Gallery di Londra; Museo Svedese di Fotografia.
