Julia Ueno Strowski is co-founder of two initiatives.
WomXnInSpaces emerged from researching the perception of female bodies in society, confronting the audience with a diverse range of different shapes of female identifying bodies. This project encourages questioning stereotypes and normalizing different bodies. Beauty, validity, intersectional food culture.

Driftersnation emerged from the question of identity. How do monitoring forms, labelling requests affect you when set in relation to your heritage? Curating and initiating a platform for people from “non-label-freindly” backgrounds. This initiative is currently creating an audio play, aiming to bring shared experiences into a format, celebrating community within that context.
