CAMP, a Mumbai-based studio founded in 2007, integrates surveillance and TV networks in innovative ways, challenging perceptions of documentation. Their first major exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York features three significant video projects, which redefine community portrayal through repurposed technology. Notably, one film utilizes cellphone footage from sailors, while another allows street-level individuals to control a high-altitude CCTV camera. The founders emphasize the importance of maintaining an open digital archive and the value of unedited footage, further shedding light on societal narratives through their unique artistic lens.
CAMP transforms surveillance and television into community-driven narratives, offering an alternative perspective on how we document and engage with our surroundings through technology.
Our exhibition at MoMA showcases how CAMP repurposes television and surveillance to explore community portrayals, highlighting the significance of open digital archives and shared experiences.
