Julia Wilson
2025 Fall FellowJulia Lines Wilson holds a BFA in Fiber Art and Material Studies and an MLA in Landscape Architecture. Her work blends these two fields of study: interlacing weaving, art, and landscape to create spaces for inter-species connections across ecological, social, and urban systems. Her research focuses on how we might participate as co-creators of place while emphasizing site material as, simultaneously, living memory and design future. She was named an LAF Olmsted Scholar in 2024.
Wilson’s speculative garden, FUTURE DRIFTS, was one of four winners of the Jardins de Métis International Garden Festival in Québec in 2024. It provides a diverse set of conditions for asters to potentially cross within in response to changing habitats and climates, creating multiple spaces for possible future ecologies.
In 2025, Wilson received a NYSCA Grant for a landscape intervention and public art project at Stone Quarry Hill Art Park in Cazenovia, NY. The project, Collective Mending, blends weaving and meadow-sowing to visibly mend a disturbed open woodland.
During the Residency at the Block House, she will research textile language and techniques as landscape design tools, and engage with the public through weaving and plant relationships.
