About


Carol Camp, b. 1995
Turin, Italy


Carol Camp is a Brazilian-Italian mixed-media artist whose practice deconstructs the visual experience of time. Through a combination of photography manipulation, video art, painting, and poetry, she fragments and reassembles moments, challenging linear perceptions of memory and reality. Informed by her background in filmmaking, Camp's work investigates the interplay between stillness and motion, presence and absence.

Generative AI & The Environment


Carol Camp believes that the rise of AI is a reality to be engaged with, not ignored. As an artist exploring its possibilities, she is committed to using AI responsibly and advocating for its sustainable development. She believes it's crucial to hold tech companies accountable, asking for more transparency on their sustainability efforts.

In her artistic practice, Carol strives for efficiency and mindfulness when working with AI:

  • She carefully refines her prompts to reduce the number of generated outputs.
  • She prioritizes less energy-intensive AI models. 
  • She offsets her monthly carbon usage through UNDO, a UK-based carbon removal project that permanently removes CO2 from the atmosphere by spreading silicate rock on agricultural land. This is a science-backed method for mitigating climate change.

Carol has been vegetarian since the age of 13, understanding the significant environmental impact of animal agriculture. She supports and donates to Meat Free Monday, a campaign that encourages plant-based eating to benefit the environment, animals, and human health.
