ARTIST OF THE MONTH: camille clavery
Camille Clavery is a Brooklyn-based, Black collage artist whose work is primarily focused on exploring the sense of wonder and adventure Women of Color imbue upon the spaces they inhabit. She challenges perceptions of wealth and luxury as they relate to WoC through through her constructs, juxtaposing symbols of high fashion and opulence with natural materials and precious metals, in an effort to highlight long-standing inequities within our society. Inspired by Afro-Futurism, Clavery's work presents WoC in positions of power, majesty and magic - showcasing their beauty, strength and transcendence while simultaneously acknowledging the hidden pain and complexity inherent in their consciousness.
