Joyce Campbell
Joyce Campbell born1971, Aotearoa New Zealand is an interdisciplinary artist based in Auckland, New Zealand. She has an MFA from Elam School of Fine Arts, University of Auckland (1999), where she is now Associate Professor.
Her recent work utilises anachronistic photographic techniques, such as the daguerreotype and ambrotype, as well as conventional analogue and digital photography, video, film and sculpture. She uses these to examine the collision of natural and cultural systems often in extreme environments. Her interests have led her to render visible biological systems, microbial life and other living organisms by means of interpreting the real with pseudoscientific, metaphorical visual strategies. She has exhibited throughout New Zealand, and her works have been included in solo and group exhibitions in Australia and the U.S.A.
