Cameron Harvey: The Shape of Being
Saturday, August 24–Sunday, December 8, 2024
For her first solo museum exhibition, Cameron Harvey shares a new body of work inspired by her walks in the Santa Monica Mountains surrounding the Pepperdine campus. Her paintings and sculptures are based on the formal qualities of the human body and their similarities to local flora and rock formations. Employing a strong midline as a unifying element, her work reveals the diversity and variability that exists within a repeated form, prompting us to reflect on the universal aspects of the human experience and our relationship to our environment.
