Tobacco Tin Set
Patterns, regular repeated organisations of elements, are omnipresent. Appearing in the natural and human-engineered worlds, they form an ever-evolving series, cross-linked yet gradually mutating.
Cameron’s patterns similarly iterate, featuring a sliding scale of motif determined by the object undergoing transformation or outside themes. Her precision, aided by the strict application of geometry, is founded in the clarity of her vision. As in nature, a vacuum is abhorred.
The pattern cuts the object and forces its revaluation and reassembly. The flexible ties that now bind the parts perform a delicate balancing act, reminiscent of the inextricable interdependence of all matter.
The Recycled Object Series are a continuing series of works that the artist makes from objects found at antique shops, markets and thrift stores.
