Bea Campbell

In response to our changing world Bea’s practice explores the creator’s resourcefulness, adaptability, and innovation. Curious how the future will look and the concept of the symbiocene, her practice is increasingly driven by her interest in exploring sustainability and organic structures. She is captivated by the new green materials that will one day be integrated into our everyday life and the science that is pushing boundaries to create a more dynamic future for us.

As she moves on, she has been challenging the sustainability of her practice – using paint as well considered as possible and expanding the ways in which she makes marks – she has also been turning to her domestic life to provide a new life to disposable items. As she rations the use of off-the-shelf materials, she uses recycled and collected materials thus works have developed a dimension of tactility.

Born in 1993 and raised in London, Bea graduated from Wimbledon College of Arts with a BA in Fine Art: Painting. She moved to Rome in October 2021 where she is currently studying for her MA in Fine Art Painting, from Rome University of Fine Art.
