  • Artist (Performance Artist)
Performance artist. For the final work of her residency at the University of Sydney's Centre for Performance Studies, Campbell inscribed her body with motifs that were only visible under ultra-violet light. She revealed them by sweeping a palm-leaf fan with a concealed UV light across her body. It was designed as a counter-work to the the university's Macleay Museum's exhibition 'Adorned.'
