Michael Campbell: Field Recordings of Icebergs Melting
Jan Allen & Joanne Marion

Campbell’s flotilla of driftwood and scrap-metal vessels alludes to Victorian-era adventure narratives, 20th century industrial salvage, and the upheavals wrought by climate change. His work also echoes filmic and historical mythologies of battered ships, including the African Queen, the Civil war battleship Monitor, Franklin’s Erebus and Terror and the army of apocalyptic cars from the Road Warrior. Published with the Tom Thomson Gallery and Esplanade Gallery.

Michael Campbell: 12,000 Years Collapsing into Eight Seconds
David Garneau

Michael Campbell describes his most recent video installation, created expressly for the Southern Alberta Art Gallery, as expanding on previous production with the construction of a large cinematic set that implies multiple fictive narratives. These overlap and converge to form a coherent experiential tableaux that links reality with filmic memory and transcendental fantasies.
