Vane Julian is an illustrator based on the Mediterranean coast of Spain. She navigates between editorial and commercial work, doing press, children’s illustration, graphic campaigns and mural art.
Images as language
She uses images as a means of communication, as if it were another language. Each project has its own process of work, approaching them from a conceptual or graphic side of it.
Multicultural perspective
Her professional journey has taken her to cities such as Barcelona, Italy, Manchester (UK), and Nepal, where she has been able to receive academic training and where these experiences have influenced her work.
Her work draws on iconography, cinematic references, gender perspectives, and metaphorical use of natural elements, which together define her graphic language. She combines both digital and traditional techniques in the creation of her illustrations. Exposure to multiple cultures has helped her develop an eclectic cultural perspective, reflected in her graphic style through the use of simple forms and vibrant colors.
Critical and committed perspective
She collaborates assiduously in cultural initiatives contributing the graphic part from a critical and committed perspective.
