Juliet Darling’s liberal education came from the Milton Academy in Boston. She studied art at the Canberra School of art, film making at Swinburne Film and Television school. She has exhibited her work at The Arts Council Gallery in Canberra, George Paton Gallery, at the University of Melbourne, Realities Gallery, Melbourne. Her drawings, including Red Glove 1983, pencil on paper, and Tight Shoes 1982, were described by Memory Holloway as 'the most immediately witty’ aspect of Comic Stripping, an exhibition at the George Paton and Ewing Gallery at the University of Melbourne in June 1983.
Her documentary films, A Pair of One and A Curator’s Last Will and Testament were exhibited at Roslyn Oxley Gallery. A Curator’s Last Will and Testament which is her memorial to her partner, the curator Nick Waterlow, who was killed in November 2009, was also exhibited at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
She is also the author of a play Look at the View and a novel, Mercy Annie.
Her meditation on her relationship with Waterlow, Double Spring, will be published in 2013.
