Camila Manero’s photographs have an earthy yet elegant texture that pulls them out of the two-dimensional realm and into the realm of sensory experience. Whether working with Hollywood memorabilia or architecture, Manero imbues her subjects with a subtle sense of motion—everything and everyone seems to be slowly moving through a dreamscape of ethereal colors and surfaces. An artist who reads narratives into objects and nature, she is able to take a simple shape and give it a history, an aura and a sense of purpose. Her technical experimentation also enhances the multi-dimensional, sensorial quality of her work, as she works in both analog and digital photography and with alternative photographic methods.
Manero, who began her aesthetic explorations as a dancer, turned to photography when she realized it offered a wealth of opportunities for someone who enjoyed exploring motion and texture. Her English, Mexican and Spanish background has given her a unique cultural outlook and she aims to bring viewers a new sense of the world’s beauty.
