Juliana Rodríguez

Multi-media artist Juliana Rodríguez was born in Argentina in 1984 and moved to the United States in 2014. Her childhood was heavily influenced by her fascination towards Barbie dolls, grunge music, photography and dressmaking, which continues to inspire her aesthetic today. She attended Institute of Cinematographic Art of Avellaneda and received her Bachelor's Degree of Cinema Director in 2007.
Soon in 2009 after starting her first cinematographic projects she explored the technic of Chroma key leading to the beginning of the digital art project she continued until today called Revolver Dolls where she combined her cinematographic skills and Barbie dolls developing photographic series. Although at the beginning the main character from this series were Barbie dolls, Rodríguez continued exploring the image searching for a more picturesque view, distorting the photographic aesthetic to a more digital picture, painting digitally until the point of converting the dolls in 3D figures nowadays. Since 2020, Rodriguez started combining her conceptual ideas into 3D music videos, elevating the Revolver Dolls project to a new dimension of exploration. Universal themes such as death and immortality are still the main topics from this project...
