"Excessive, mysterious, wonderful, Juliacks work takes the graphic novel to a new and more plastic dimension." —Chris Kraus, author of I Love Dick, Torpor, Summer of Hate

"ARCHITECTURE OF AN ATOM is a long, deep breath before a dive. It’s a Piscean tale of survival, harrowing and surreal, a dreamlike escape, a delight. Dive into this pool of misfits and watch how wreckage becomes magic, hunger becomes adventure, and human questions about love, intimacy, and community unravel and manifest in beautiful washes of color. The language matches the vibrancy of the drawings and paintings that describes a cast of characters surviving on the brink of a disaster, in the end forming a magnificent poetic experience." —Sally Wen Mao, author of Mad Honey Symposium

Architecture of an Atom is a painted graphic novel, breaking its own form with each spread, chronicling dozens of characters falling into each other, swimming upstream, drawing on and extending Juliacks's incantory performance pieces, plays and film. Black gilded pages.

Juliacks is based in New Jersey and the Netherlands.
