Moira Cameron & son @ Beers Gallery

Reincarnation is a key theme in the work of mother/son artistic duo, Xavier Spiller-Cameron + Moira Cameron, who have been working together for the past five years.  They have created an oeuvre of stark, almost-brutalist, but also greatly expressive works that adhere to their own strict set of codes.

Firstly, the concept of reincarnation arises metaphorically, in that each of their paintings is created as a different, sentinel-type watchman. Each is titled after a Greek god, Biblical or historic figure, or even personified spiritualist ideology.  Their exhibition aptly titled Titans & Muses, scours the mythological and spiritualist annals to resurrect these figures as paintings.
