BIO.
Juleah Everglade (b. 1999) is a visual artist currently based in Oakwood, Georgia. Her work explores the evolving meaning of home, a theme that first emerged in 2019 through surreal landscape-portraits depicting the human figure as environment, connecting people to place. This concept was born from her long-term adventures camping and road-tripping across the U.S., where she cultivated a sense of home on the road, rooting herself through wildness and the natural world.
In her current body of work, Juleah continues to explore home through the lens of female friendship, collaboration, and shared healing. Alongside fellow artists and close friends Aida Alarcón and Isabella Martino, she co-created How I See Her—a group exhibition that examines themes of girlhood, the emotional integrity of women, and the creation of a dynamic sense of home beyond the domestic sphere. The exhibition has been shown at the Roy C. Moore Gallery and The Quinlan Visual Arts Center (2024–2025), and is currently on view at The Old Storehouse Gallery in Dahlonega, GA (Fall 2025).
Juleah earned a B.S. in Art Marketing from the University of North Georgia in 2021. Since then, she has developed an independent art practice in Atlanta, exhibiting her work in venues such as The Bakery, Mint, South River Art Studios, and Azjio. Through her mobile creative event service, Southern Misfit Studios, she also fosters community engagement by hosting paint classes, youth art programs, and art workshops throughout North Georgia.
