Juliet Klottrup is an award-winning visual artist who combines photography, filmmaking, and painting. Based in the North West of England, she uses her work to explore the relationship between people and place. Juliet’s short documentary film, Travelling Home, recently screened at BAFTA and BIFA-qualifying festivals including the London Film Festival and Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
Juliet's lens-based work captures local communities, collaborating with subjects to create a raw, modern archive of identity and belonging. Through portraiture and still life, she documents social and environmental stories, blending still and motion imagery on analogue mediums.
Her painting practice explores ambiguity and emotion, often inspired by dreams. In 2023, she won the Beavertown Creatives Untapped Award for contemporary artists. Her intuitive paintings use rich textures, bold pigments, and an evolving palette to convey movement and feeling.
