Co-Adorn Art Jewellery Society's fifth members' exhibition in partnership with L.A. Pai Gallery
June 5 - 25, 2021
June 5 - 25, 2021
Co-Adorn Art Jewellery Society invites you to celebrate its fifth annual members' exhibition, Camp: A Spectacle of Rings. What better way to celebrate than to show off your best cocktail rings! This year, Co-Adorn asked the seriously playful artist to respond to the theme: Camp.
Reaffirmed by theatrical subculture, and historically present in the exaggerated elegance of Baroque Art, 'Camp’ provokes an innovation of aesthetic values; celebrating obscure, unreasonable, artificial and emotionally calculated style.
- Meris Mosher, Co-Adorn
What is camp? Camp is a cultural trope, a specific aesthetic style. Camp celebrates the obscure, the unreasonable. Camp provokes innovation. The essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural, of artifice and exaggeration. See our academic inspiration here: Sontag, S. (2018). Notes on 'Camp'. London, UK: Penguin Books.
