WRITTEN word & a golden photographic snapshot

The manifesto delves into the irony of aging and personal growth, highlighting the struggle to reconcile childhood trauma with the expectations of adulthood. It paints a picture of shedding past pain and embracing contradictions, where the glitter of creativity and truth is undercut by the gritty realities of life. The gold imagery, while present, is tinged with a sense of dark humor and disillusionment, making the journey toward self-acceptance a complex and ironically playful one.

Camilla Howalt

Visual Artist

After graduating with First-Class Honours from Wimbledon School of Art and completing an MA at Kingston University’s Center for Research in Modern European Philosophy, Camilla Howalt (b.1968) established her Malmö-based studio in 2021. Her practice focuses on creating prints and original artworks that blend photography, painting, and digital techniques.

Working across painting, textile-based media, and photography to explore perception, materiality, and fragmentation, her work traces the ways pain - physical, emotional, existential - inscribes itself onto surfaces, bodies, and spaces. Through mapped and layered textures, she investigates how presence unfolds in the tension between sensuality, introspection, and abstraction.

Camilla’s work is part of private collections across Europe, and her prints are available for purchase, bringing her distinct, contemplative style into homes and spaces looking for both aesthetic and thoughtful engagement.
