Julia is a contemporary mosaic artist living and working in Moscow, Russia.

For more than 15 years she is engaged in the decoration of private and public interiors and collaborates with designers and interior stylists. Artist create wall panels, sculptures and art pieces, decorates restaurants and working spaces with mosaics artworks. Her works are published in leading interior and home magazines.

"Mosaic is the love of my life. Since I tried to work and arrange these multi-colored pieces of glass I cannot imagine my life without what I love."

Despite the fact that the history of mosaic goes back more than one century, nowadays it is experiencing its renaissance. Modern mosaic artworks completely change our understanding of this ancient art, the material reveals itself from a new side and sounds ultra-modern.
Artist creates works in contemporary style and mainly works on a commission basis, complementing the interior with art objects. "I really like to experiment, look for new combinations and shapes. I use stone, glass, cement, gold leaf, I go beyond the classical reading of the material. My recognizable signature style is natural subjects made by inlaying thin pieces of gold and silver glass."

Mosaic is not only the facades of buildings or the decoration of pools and bathrooms. Julia want to show that artworks in this fine craft technique are appropriate in modern and classic homes, they become a decoration, and sometimes an aesthetic dominant of the interior.

In the era of mass production, unique pieces of art are becoming more and more popular with people who appreciate the exclusivity of handicraft.

"Mosaic is my true passion! I want people to own art pieces that are not only beautiful but also valuable and their value increases over time."

I am open for comissions.

 



Julia Gorbunova In The Studio

In my practice, I explore the profound connection between nature and humanity, striving to embody the delicate balance of life forms on Earth in mosaic panels and sculptural compositions. Through the interplay of form and light, texture and color, I invite viewers to reflect on their role in this intricate pattern and to rethink their perception of the beauty of the surrounding world.
