Timothy L. Campbell is a multi-talented, Chicago-based artist and volunteer who creates paintings, photographs, and poems. He has shown in a variety of venues, including galleries, cafes, and schools. His conceptual paintings incorporate a primitive style, text with references to travel, and ironic phrases. With a vibrant and frenzied execution, his paintings burst to life with visual energy and intelligent wit.
While backpacking throughout Latin America, Campbell picked up several stories that inspired him to explore established narratives, as well as personal scenarios, in paint. THE RAINS is an exhibition of these explorations, with an emphasis on work from a recent trip to Peru.
