Juli Fejer
Juli Fejer is a self-taught artist based in London and Suffolk.
Her art comes from the conflict between disabling pain and rekindled hope. Although both her father and grandfather were artists, she followed other paths.
She is a published fiction writer and worked in marketing for many years, where she had responsibility for graphic design and visual branding.
In 2003 her career was cut short by fibromyalgia. For years she struggled with chronic pain and depression. After attending an NHS pain course, she started to paint again after 40 years. This became a consuming passion as well as a therapy.
She took courses at Putney School of Art and established connections with artists in Southfields. She identifies as an outsider artist, working in the naïve tradition.
During the past year, she has exhibited at Parallax, the New Artist Fair, Wandsworth Artists Open House, and her pictures are on display in St George’s Hospital.
She shares her work through Instagram, where she has 5000 followers and sells online and through an art café.
