Status
Not on viewKnown primarily for his video art, Campus took a hiatus during the 1980s and 90s to work with still photography and the recently developed medium of digital image manipulation. Focusing on subjects in nature, Campus layered images to create something that appears simultaneously real and artificial in his attempt to “discover timelessness in everyday life.” At this point in his career, Campus found that nature played an important role in his artistic process, allowing him to focus on the external, rather than on the internal experiences that informed his earlier video works.
