Paris Campbell-Peddie

Paris Campbell-Peddie a final year student who is an abstract painting artist who is exploring culture, women, understanding ones identity, leadership, empowerment and equality. Her work tells stories of a Black heritage through the use of earthy tones that all have specific meanings to them.  Her paintings are of cultural curvaceous figures, revealing aspects of her life and unravelling the inner her through the use of shapes and colour and material. Paris’ work is not about showing the visual attraction of a woman’s body, she is exploring what is beneath the outer exterior. She does this by experimenting with abstracted shapes and unusual forms and powerful colours, all these intriguing snatches of her work help the viewer to understand her not only as an artist but as a woman.
