"The idiosyncratic experience we have of the world constitutes an artist's greatest asset. The objective of this workshop is to endow students with the ability to access their emotions and singular perspectives, and impart the necessary techniques to represent such experiences onto canvas in harmony with their goal to successfully represent a person or object"

Solomon Kammer (she/they) (b. 1991, Australia) is a self-taught Adelaide-based artist who works predominantly in painting. Kammer draws on her own experiences of chronic illness, medical science and gender biases to expose the prejudices, challenges and abuses faced by many women and gender minorities today.

While Kammer’s work is intensely personal, it also speaks to broader experiences of emotional and bodily mistreatment. The bold and confronting compositions Kammer creates speak to underrepresented communities: people living with disability, illness and trauma.

Kammer has been a finalist for numerous major art awards including the Archibald Prize and the Ramsay Prize.
