About this Event
Join us for a new in person Meet The Fellows event with our current Fall Fellows Shaina Anand and Ashok Sukumaran where they will share about their course, CAMP collective and current projects. Meet us in person in the CEE lounge RM 438 for light refreshments and snacks.
CAMP (founded by Shaina Anand and Ashok Sukumaran in 2007) is a Mumbai-based studio of people who are artists, architects, filmmakers, and technologists. They host long-running video archives Pad.ma and Indiancine.ma, a rooftop cinema for the past 15 years, and make art that is possessed of an infrastructural imagination. CAMP’s artworks have been exhibited in biennales, museums and film festivals worldwide, and in the streets, markets and neighbourhoods of Bangalore, San Jose, Dakar, Mexico City, Jerusalem, Kolkata, Kabul, Delhi, Ljubljana, Münster and Bombay and are in the permanent collection of major museums. Recent shows include solos at Sharjah Art Foundation, (2022) Nam June Paik Art Center (2021), Argos Center for Art and Media, Brussels, and the De Appel Gallery, Amsterdam (2019) and performances at M+,HongKong (2023) and MoMA, New York (2023). In 2020 they were awarded the 7th Nam June Paik Centre Prize. CAMP were Forensic Architecture guest professors for 2023-2024.
Shaina Anand (born 1975) studied film and media art, and has run an independent film and art practice since 1999. She co-initiated the Pad.ma footage archive in 2008, and the Indiancine.ma archive in 2013. Her practice comes from a located critique of documentary film and forms of address, and an expansion into methods engaging with archives, surveillance, subject awareness and collectivity.
Ashok Sukumaran (born 1974) studied architecture and media art, and has broad interests in technology, media and its “earthing”, which he has explored by leading artistic projects on seas, roads, housing and electricity among other subjects, in South Asia and elsewhere. He is the winner of a Golden Nica award at Prix Ars electronica in 2007, and a UNESCO digiarts award in 2006.
