Julian Weaver

Julian Weaver is an artist who works primarily with sound. His work focuses on matter, substance and sensing in scientific and historical imaginaries and fictions.

Water is a regular component of his practice which ranges from bubble acoustics and seaweed’s extractive economies to the charting of hydrogen isotopes in nuclear fusion, from remaking the cold water cures of Hydropathy to exploring the English Channel as a site of nausea.

He is currently interactive art director of, and commissioning curator of artworks for, Fusion, Power to the People: EUROfusion’s pan-European touring exhibition 2021-25 on the state of the art in Fusion Energy, and is a project partner on Listening Across Disciplines; a four year AHRC research project.

His recent work includes Nearly Present (Full of Noises, Acoustic Commons, 2021), commissioning curator (fine art) for EUROfusion, Rocantin for Colonel Gouraud (Colour Out Of Space, 2019), Outwork (Fort Process, 2018) and Wet Sensing (Whitstable Biennale, 2018).
