Comic book author and multidisciplinary visual artist Jul Maroh uses various graphic and narrative media to explore the no man’s land between the personal sphere and the collective. Their work examines modern intimacies and the social issues of the contemporary world.

After studying at the St. Luc Higher School of Arts and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, their first comic book Blue Is The Warmest Color was published in 2010. This book received various awards and was adapted for film under the title La Vie d’Adèle It's been translated in more than 15 languages.
Jul Maroh then published several graphic novels, such as You brought me the ocean for DC Comics, and their two most recent books Hacker la peau, and Boutonné en jalousie at Le Lombard.

Alongside their work in comics, in 2014 they were given carte blanche by the CAPC in Bordeaux to create the spatial narrative entitled Procession. Their residency at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris (2022-2023), for which they were a laureate of the Carasso Foundation, allows them to continue their plastic and spatial exploration through their series of large portraits on wood with gold leaf, entitled Trans Resilience. This series got its first solo show at the Gender Bender International Cultural Festival in Italy in 2024.
