Artist bio
Camilla Løw (b.1976, Oslo, Norway), graduated with a BA in Fine Art from the Glasgow School of Art. Through a visual language that recalls Constructivism and Minimalism, Camilla uses industrial materials to carefully compose her structural form. Embracing the sites and the specificities of the materials she works with, Camilla’s work allows for a redefinition of space, in turn, allowing new relations to emerge.
