Artist CV

Juliette Watkins

Manchester, NH

Juliettegwatkins@gmail.com

@dark.room.dweller

A New Hampshire based photographer, Juliette earned her BFA at New England College’s Institute Of Art And Design in 2024 with a focus on fine art photography. Juliette's work has themes of abstraction showing repeated themes of reduction to highlight form, light and composition. By decontextualizing her subject using composition and high contrast, she can further remove her subject from reality and focus more on the subjective nature of the images she creates. Juliette’s work has been exhibited regionally and internationally. Recently, Juliette has begun to experiment with alternative darkroom processes while she pursues her Masters of Fine Art at University of the Arts London.
