Zoë Camper: Still Life with Technology opens
This exhibition of mixed-media drawings explores the relationship between humanity and technology in art and in life. It runs through September 19. There will be a gallery talk and artist reception with light refreshments on September 17, starting at 6 p.m.
Zoë Camper is a London-native, Las Vegas-based artist whose work explores the intersection of technology, creativity, and the human experience. Working across fantastical landscapes, portraiture, industrial imagery, and conceptual works, Camper begins each piece with a story, often a commentary on how technology shapes or complicates our lives, with pencil as a favorite medium.
Camper situates Still Life with Technology within a tradition stretching back to the industrial revolution, "From Charlie Chaplin's questioning of the machine in 'Modern Times' to Umberto Boccioni's exhilarating ideals about technology's possibilities, modern-day artists have created a vital and powerful dialog about the impact of technology." Still Life with Technology carries that conversation forward.
