About

Daura Campos is a Brazilian lens-based artist based in Belo Horizonte. In her practice, she investigates social issues through experimental photographic techniques. Her photographs push against expectations of representation in exploring what is often left unseen. Beyond a medium of choice, her process allows for analog film to exist as a reactive being, and aims to facilitate discourse about our relationship with photography and the world around us.

Daura has exhibited at Rotterdam Photo, Rotterdam, Netherlands; Gallery 44, Toronto, Canada; Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, Germany; Museum of Art of Pereira, Pereira, Colombia; Gallery Kannski, Reykjavík, Iceland; Open Eye Gallery, Liverpool, UK. Her awards include The Alternative Art School Brandy's Juried Fellowship, FORGE Fellowship, and a special mention by the Art Vue Foundation Yearly Prize.

She received her Bachelor of Film and Media from PUC Minas in Belo Horizonte in 2024. Currently, she works as an independent artist and teaches alternative photographic processes at StrudlemediaLive.
