Camera Bodies

Camera Bodies features a collection of photographic works each contributing to the expansion of traditional portraiture practices. Through the implementation of textile, dramaturgy, and cultural reference, these artists elaborate on the conventions of portraiture, giving weight to vernacular and ephemeral modes of being while extending into a state of multiplicity. Exploring what it means to create a photographic portrait, these works interrogate the role the photographic portrait plays in understanding ourselves and others.

This group exhibition, featuring artists: Sai Bagni, Madison Chow, Emily Cole, Grace Csizmadia, Aiden Milroy, Izzy Nastic, Tanvi Parikh, Sophia Tran, and Marilyn Western, was curated by Kenna Robinson and the MaxEx 2025 Team
