Featured Artists.
Iona AdamThese two years at Camosun have shown me more than I could have ever dared to explore on my own. From strengthening my lifelong love of analog photography, to surprising myself with how much solace I took in performance art; it opened me up to the world as both as a person and as an artist. Before this program I thought art was a solitary endeavor, that work was to be created in the wee hours of the morning alone in your room. But having colleagues to help guide and inspire me changed my view on the art world and my own art so much—none of my work would have been as strong without the opinions and support of my classmates, professors, and technicians. Moving forward from Camosun, it will be a hard adjustment to go back to creating alone, but the advice and skills I picked up will continue to strengthen and diversify my work as I navigate the world around me, and see where my ceramics, film photography, and I myself as an artist fit in.

Kai AlbionDuring my time in the Visual arts program at Camosun College, I have been trying to figure out what kind of artist I am. When I first started, I knew that I wanted to be an illustrator, but I wasn’t sure what kind of drawing artist I was going to become. Over the time at school and after doing some research, I have come to realize that my drawings and illustrations act as a way for me to tell a story and show what I want to say in them. The other main medium that I use is photography. I mostly like to manipulate the photos either digitally or by hand if it is a film photo. I just really enjoy creating crazy photos that are strange and unusual. I always like the beauty in the strange and weird, and I like to make it in my art because that is my way of getting my weird out.
