Julia Reodica Hillerman has been an interdisciplinary artist since the early 1990’s. She has performed, produced, and managed works in graphics, commercial media, live performance, and multi-media, along with talent and studio management.
As an interdisciplinary artist, she was a pioneer in the field of biological art, using biopsies of her own body to create living sculptures that opened up new considerations of the artist as scientist, art industry ethical considerations, and new laboratory techniques for creative use.
She produces, writes, directs, performs, and manages film and live performance projects, in addition to creating art with Dylan Hillerman, the founder of GuignolFest Productions and the annual 72-hr Horror Movie Contest in Portland, Oregon. In GuignolFest’s horror series, “The Night Attacks,” she acts, co-directs, co-writes, produces, builds props, and co-edits the film. Life work also includes health and healing with a Doctorate of Nursing Practice, as a Family Nurse Practitioner.
