Camille Barreto is an artist born and raised in Miami. Her work varies throughout different mediums and approaches as she strives towards creating a sense of intimate connection and personal language between art and herself.
Camille’s passion for working with intuitive and subjective concepts that grant the freedom to touch on topics like the human experience has informed her current shift in focus and manner of creating. With that curiosity and interest in interpretation, she also focuses on studying the materials, methods, and processes she implements in her practice to not only explore her personal journey with art-making, but strengthen the relationship she holds with art.
Experimentation, intuition, connection, and spirituality are important inspirations in her world.
From me to you.
Whispered gently in tormented phrases
Or introduced like the gentle flow of a stream
My voice is yours and your vision is mine.
Whether it is intuitive or calculated,
Whether it speaks of the curiosities of life,
or the emotions and perceptions of man,
It is all the same in the way it feels and speaks.
Like secret letters passed between two,
Contemplation and lightheartedness have each carved out a home within me
And is present every moment we cross paths.
I pour my heart and everything within my capabilities
I pour my devotion, my thoughts, and my questions
Endlessly with no reservations for you, to you
Because
My voice is yours and your vision is mine.
Indulging in the process and practice of creating,
Indulging in my love for materials and methods,
Indulging in the questions that lead me to you,
And the questions that happen during the process,
To cultivate and study the language between art and myself.
