Biography

Cameron Orr (b. 1992, Scottish) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice, intentionally fluid in nature, navigates around the territory of painting, sound, sculpture and installation. The basis of Cameron's work stems from the relationship between chaos and order. He is primarily interested in chance occurrences and the resultant significance and connections that we - as humans - impose upon them. More specifically; the implications of these projections and how they manifest themselves. Fragments of folklore, occult systems and everyday anecdotes are referenced as part of a ritualistic process in reinterpreting mythologies. Throughout this approach, both traditional and personal symbolisms are employed, allowing the work to function both introspectively and extrospectively. Cameron lives and works in Glasgow, Scotland.
