Cameron Kerr: Collecting the Unconscious

TRAPP Projects @ Griffin Art Projects
Curated by Patrik Andersson
Opening Reception: Friday, June 19, 2026
Cameron Kerr: Collecting the Unconscious features new work by Cameron Kerr that explores vernacular image systems, memory and canonical forms in a variety of mediums alongside work drawn from private collections. Primarily a sculptor, Kerr gives form to the complexities of grasping truth of material, truth of information and truth of ideas. If, as Friedrich Nietzsche once pointed out, “Truth is a mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms,” in Kerr’s work we find a search for universals that in the end remind us that truth is not objective but rather a collection of subjective human constructs. This new work is shown alongside a curated selection of work by Kerr drawn from local private collections. The exhibition proposes that there is a collective unconscious at play in the processes an artist engages in and correspondingly, in the way collectors collect.
