Julia Sinelnikova, born December 30, 1989 in Jerusalem, Israel is a Brooklyn based visual artist, model, performance artist, and event producer. Before moving to New York, Sinelnikova grew up in Russia until age 5, and then lived in Austin and Houston, Texas until she was 18. She received a bachelor’s degree in fine arts from Fashion Institute of Technology in 2013. She creates holographic sculptures using LED lights, acrylic, hand-cut resin, mylar, and other materials. Julia was commissioned to produce stage designs for Aurora Halal and created an immersive light sculpture for Machinedrum.[1][2] She also produces public works, like Triquetra for Healing for the New York City Parks Department[3] at Brower Park in Crown Heights, Brooklyn,[4] and participates in events related to Art Basel in Miami, Florida.[5]
The Oracle of Vector Gallery
Since 2013, Sinelnikova has performed as The Oracle of Vector Gallery.[6] Run by visual artist and gallerist, JJ Brine, Julia started out at Vector Gallery’s Chinatown, New York City [7] space before it moved to Los Angeles.
In 2014, Sinelnikova curated a booth with Lena Marquise and J.J. Brine at Satellite Art Show during Miami Art Basel week. It featured Ms. Marquise's "Living Doll" performance which received media coverage from TMZ due to Usher paying $20 to charge his cell phone from a battery pack located inside Ms. Marquise.[8] Sinelnikova and Brine's light sculptures hung in the booth, which was profiled by Billboard[9] and featured on The Real Housewives of New York City.[10]
Powered
Featured alongside Ben Copperwheat, and other New York artists, Julia Sinelnikova presented her “Fairy Organs,” during an exhibition titled “Powered” in 2015.[11] Curated by Issa Israel, the event represented art created by members of the nightlife community in NYC.
Banff Centre Residency
Sinelnikova took part in a three-week residency for the Banff Centre in Alberta, Canada[12] in 2016. Throughout the program, led by MUTEK’s Patti Schmidt, Sinelnikova received context to research, conceive, prototype, and present new artistic works, tools, techniques, and perspectives for electronic music, sound, and visual creation.[13] During the residency, Sinelnikova focused on an installation, titled “SENTINEL – Temple of Self Awareness,” which showed in 2015 at The Museum of Human Achievement in Austin, Texas.
Chasm
Sinelnikova produced a party and exhibition in Bushwick, Brooklyn in 2016 titled “Chasm.” The event featured Sinelnikova’s LED sculptures, alongside performers and a DJ. In addition to showcasing her work, Chasm brought attention to the lack of affordable spaces for artists in expensive cities like New York.[14]
Ghost
In 2016, Sinelnikova modelled for New York-based photographer, filmmaker, and multimedia artist Laura Weyl.[15] Created in the abandoned Port Authority Grain Terminal in Red Hook, Brooklyn, Weyl photographed Sinelnikova for a series titled, “Ghost.”
Organ Farm at Industry City
Presented by Wallplay in 2017, Sinelnikova’s solo installation “Organ Farm,”[16] showcased her hand-cut holographic works at Industry City in Brooklyn. For this show, Sinelnikova released a video featuring her SAMJNA sculpture with projections, light, and music.
Rootkit
Taking over Superchief’s 7,000 square foot Brooklyn warehouse in 2018,[17] Sinelnikova created an installation titled “Rootkit.” Inspired by cyberpunk novel, Snow Crash,[18] the installation incorporated projectors, TVs, hand-cut mylar, binary code, among other materials to represent the invisible world of cyber warfare. Alongside the installation, Sinelnikova acted out a scene from the book.[19]
COVID response and impact
In May 2020 she began working with the Masks in The Wild project via Wallplay as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic.[20] Julia was also slated to provide an installation and performance for the 2020 Contemporary Arts Museum Houston Gala and Art Auction.[21][22]
