Tammi Campbell
Tammi Campbell’s art practice engages with the tradition of Modernist and Minimalist painting. Campbell humorously probes the specificity of the medium of painting and the fetishism of the creative process through paintings made in the style of trompe l’œil, but which appear to remain unfinished. She draws upon various materials and peripheral activities that are specific to the art world, and which contribute to a deep questioning of the value attributed to painting and to artists’ craft.
Tammi Campbell (born 1974, Canada) has exhibited work at the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa; Vancouver Art Gallery; and Remai Modern, Saskatoon, among others.
