The self-taught painter, sculptor, photographer and filmmaker Thomas Campbell splits his time between his cabin-style studio surrounded by a fairy ring of redwood trees in Bonny Doon - a minimally populated area nestled in the mountains above Santa Cruz, California - and traversing the globe making films. Campbell’s artworks combine scribbles and scriptures, taking slogans and anecdotes from his unique vocabulary and juxtaposing them with a profound look into human nature. Influenced by eclectic sources and movements such as the 60s Arte Povera, 90s grunge, and longstanding traditions of American craft, Campbell's homegrown folksy DIY-aesthetic, at once elegant and expressive, as also mythologized by curator Aaron Rose in the 2008-film Beautiful Losers, escapes any formal models of categorization. Blended with personal visual memories, it makes for an eclectic bricolage, from which nomadic symbols emerge and subvert dichotomies between "high" and "low", between what’s printed and painted. Campbell’s work is an eloquent transmutation, a sifting of perceptual views, carrying a wealth of affective or alluding resonances.
