Juli Delporte is an author and a multidisciplinary artist. Since 2005, she has been a resident of Montreal, where she has published several graphic novels for adults — Corps Vivante, Journal, Moi aussi je voulais l’emporter — two children’s' albums — Grandes Oreilles, Je suis un raton laveur — and a book of poetry and etchings, Décroissance Sexuelle. Her works are distributed internationally and have been translated into English, Spanish and Korean. She also writes literary essays, contributes to various magazines and publishing houses, and collaborates on collective publications. In order to produce artist's books and fanzines, she explores different printing techniques such as screen printing and risography.

In building intimate stories through an encounter between words and drawing, she mobilizes the private in its political dimension by focusing on feminist, queer and environmentalist themes. Through her work, she hopes to care for her readers and write stories that, in the words of Annie Ernaux, ‘help people to live,’ especially those affected by the sensitive issues she raises, while also helping others to be more empathetic. She is currently working on a graphic novel about her experience with a psychiatric assistance dog. This project raises critical issues surrounding norms and performance imperatives, while also questioning our emotional connection to non-human animals in the context of the crisis facing life on Earth.
