I work in analogue and digital photography and in AI, often blending some or all of three mediums together in addition to my own literature including creative writing, critical and theoretical photography essays and short stories depending on each project. Most of my work is fine art photography while some is documentary photography, some is conceptual and many are New Media such as Lady Criminals, Avatar, and Selfies. I have won awards for both my fine art analogue photography, (The New Mexico Council On Photography) and my digital documentary photography, (The Tucson Council On The Arts). While I’m well known for my creative use of cellphone apps, and have been steadily reviewed for the past three years on my innovative use of it’s applications in regards to my New Media work on technical innovation, globalization, female representation and critique of social media, some images are created on Adobe Photoshop and in Topaz because my images are blown up to mural size in some cases for exhibitions. My work especially in AI takes on issues of systemic racism, sexism and ageism. Controversial issues such as pro choice as in my series Forced Pregnancy of Women and Girls = Enslavement. Other projects that take aim at societal complexity are featured in my project and essay The Women, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women’s Epidemic among many more projects. This work would not be possible without the invaluable tools available in AI. For more information please refer to my recent review, Camille Ross: Reframing Power and Representation By: Seraphina Caldron of the Art Muse Express, September, 2024. You may notice my consistent use of raptors in the work especially in The Falconer’s and Native Light. These are a symbolic tribute to my ancestors and they serve as homages to their journey’s and their lifespans. From Mongolia to the Siberian Straits, to an Alaskan Coastal Tribe then to the Plains where I located one relative from the Lakota Sioux Reservation who fought in The Battle Of Wounded Knee. Then onto Oklahoma “Indian Country” as it was referred to for years to the Cherokee Nation where my great grandmother and all of her siblings were Cherokee Slaves, as her parents were as well. She had two daughters Ojanna and Oleta. Ojanna, my grandmother a Cherokee woman died before I could meet her as she was born in the early 1900’s. She had several cousins including Tina Blue Duck and Whispering Corn Mary. The use of eagles and ravens are commonly featured in both Native American life and art.
