A PRIVATE ROOM CATHERINE CAMERON UNTIL 29 SEPTEMBER RGI

A Private Room – Catherine Cameron

Until 29 September, 2014

RGI

Exhibition of new photography by Catherine Cameron, recipient of The Royal Glasgow Institute Exhibition Prize for a work by a recent Scottish Graduate, awarded at the RGI Annual exhibition in 2013.

By the time Catherine Cameron enrolled on the Fine Art Photography course at Glasgow School of Art she already had ten international exhibitions under her belt, exhibiting in North and South America, Asia and Europe.
“I am interested in the characteristics of dysfunctional behaviour and relationships, taking place both in the domestic and professional arenas. The emotional responses arising from a culture of hierarchy, where authority is respected and accepted, not questioned and never challenged. Repressed anger reduced to obedience, submission and passive adaptation habituate the private rooms where longing and melancholia rules. Coping mechanisms provide a protective layer for maintaining human functionality in crisis, but when internalised becomes the norm, almost a personal characteristic, the tool becomes the objective, the dysfunctional becomes functional creating a barrier hindering change.”
