American, born in 1988
Cameron Rowland exhibits everyday objects to make the institutions, systems and policies that perpetuate racism and economic inequality visible. Captions and descriptive texts turn these items into symbols attesting to the various forms of exploitation that are omnipresent in the daily life of private companies owning humanity’s primary resources or in cultural institutions.
Rowland has worked at architectural firms in New York and Copenhagen. Architectural issues thus run through all of his works in a critical discourse on the relationship between the exhibition space and the public space. He carefully studies the history and structure of the places hosting his installations.
Rowland's works in the Pinault Collection were first shown at the 2015 "Slip of the Tongue" exhibition at the Punta della Dogana in Venice.
