Hannah Nees - Weekly Artist Post - Jamie Campbell




Jamie Campbell is a Toronto-based photographer with multiple series under his belt as a photographer. These photographs are from the series Looking Askance. His other series include 'Fever Coat', 'This Will Never Last', 'Only the Fantastic has Some Chance of Being True', and 'Mourning Light'. Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada graduating with a BFA in photography. He recently completed his MFA at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada.

Campbell works with themes like insecurity, burden, vulnerability, and desperation. He is seen as showing these scenes with humor, though. I enjoy Campbell's photographs, because of the lighting he is able to utilize. Every photo he takes seems to have a profound light source that seems to be other-worldly. His portraits are also admirable, because of how unusual but extraordinary they are.
