ABOUT THE ARTIST
Melissa Cameron is an Australian artist with Anglo-Celtic and Canadian ancestry. Born and raised in Boorloo/Perth, she has lived in Melbourne and Seattle, in the USA. She holds a BA in Interior Architecture and a Postgrad Dip. in Jewellery Production from Curtin University, and an MFA in Jewellery and Metalsmithing from Monash University.
Cameron creates socially aware / protest art. The centre of her practice is her deep empathy towards the human body, and the life that each body represents. She often makes with domestic objects that are familiar to, and which act as a proxy for, the human body, which is also the main venue for the display and dissemination of her primarily wearable messages.
This item is available in Store at Midland Junction Arts Centre and at Mundaring Arts Centre.
