Michael Campbell
Blurring the lines between history and reality, Campbell describes his approach: "In previous projects, I've explored connections between North American suburban life and surreal, dream-like stories. 'Twelve thousand years' continues this exploration by juxtaposing the mundane and the inexplicable. By employing familiar elements like domestic scenes, cinematic motifs, and historical references within a surreal framework, I suggest that the ordinary can swiftly transform into the extraordinary, and that millennia can collapse into moments."
