Cameron Platter

Plasticien/ne
Afrique du Sud

Français

Cameron Platter (né à Johannesburg en 1978) vit et travaille à Shaka’s Rock, KwaZulu-Natal, Afrique du Sud.
Travaillant dans la vidéo, le dessin et la sculpture, son ?uvre est une vue ultra-primitive et anti-esthétique de ce que signifie vivre aujourd’hui en Afrique du Sud ; une vision enivrante du combat du Bien contre le Mal, illustrant la moralité contemporaine par le récit d’histoires simples tirées des médias, TV, cinéma, art, histoire, pornographie, guerre et paix, politique, musique et religion.
