Art Relief: LA – Disaster Relief Through Art
I was brought in as a Creative Director for Art Relief: LA, an emergency fundraiser set up in response to the 2025 California wildfires. Initiated by Sympact, a leading social and environmental impact consultancy, the project uses the power of art to mobilize immediate support for communities affected by the crisis.
Art Relief: LA teamed up with Artsy, the world’s largest fine art marketplace, to host an online benefit auction. The sale brought together works from both emerging and established artists, with all proceeds going directly to disaster relief efforts.
As part of the project team, I oversaw communications strategy, press outreach, and digital storytelling. I contributed to expanding the initiative’s online presence across social media and press platforms, ensuring the campaign gained visibility and engagement beyond traditional art audiences. Additionally, I supported image editing and visual asset development for the campaign, helping to present artists’ work in a clear, compelling way across all platforms.
Art Relief: LA follows earlier projects under the Art Relief umbrella, including Art Without Borders, continuing a powerful legacy of using art as a force for rapid, meaningful impact.
FLAUNT Magazine & Pixel Pants
Pixel Pants: Designing Intimacy at the Edge of Fashion and Code
Written by Jorge Lucena for Flaunt
I spoke with Flaunt Magazine about Pixel Pants, a project that sits at the intersection of fashion imagery and digital systems. The feature positions the work within a broader conversation around intimacy, authorship, and the pixel as both aesthetic unit and structural logic.
Rather than treating underwear as expression, Pixel Pants frames it as a system surface through which desire, privacy, and representation are reformatted for circulation. In the conversation, we discussed how the project operates less as a narrative and more as a framework for examining how bodies are encoded, stylised, and consumed within contemporary image economies.

The Best of British Talent & Crisis
Stylist for Crisis’ homeless charity nationally promoted Community T-shirt campaign, created to raise funds for the UK’s leading homelessness charity. The project brought together celebrated British designers — including Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, Eudon Choi, and Olivia Morris — and featured some of the UK’s most exciting cultural figures such as Lola Young, Poppy Ajudha, Nyome Williams, and Shiva Raichandani.
Photographed by Alex Brammall, the campaign was rolled out nationwide across Crisis’ retail network.

Crisis x GFF x Love Not Landfill
I worked on styling and art direction for the Crisis x Graduate Fashion Foundation x Love Not Landfill II sustainability campaign, a collaboration between three major UK institutions: Crisis, the country’s leading homelessness charity; GFF, a key platform during London Fashion Week; and Love Not Landfill, a prominent circular-fashion initiative.
The images from the shoot were displayed on public advertisements throughout London as part of a city-wide push to promote sustainable fashion and charitable support. The project brought together emerging designers and social-impact organisations to spotlight reuse culture in a visually compelling way.

Wanderlust
Debut Solo Exhibition by Matilda Rose
Debut Solo Exhibition by Matilda Rose
Curated by Camilla Ridgers
London, 2025
London, 2025
I conceived and curated the debut solo exhibition Wanderlust by Matilda Rose, authoring the curatorial essay, shaping the exhibition narrative, overseeing installation, producing invitations, managing preview clients, and serving as primary artist liaison throughout the exhibition process.
Exhibition text excerpt:
Matilda Rose (b. 1992) is a British painter whose work explores how perception shifts with time, and how the intensity of first experience fades. Her paintings trace a search for what she calls “childhood’s aura,” not as a return to youth, but as a re-encounter with the brightness through which things were once seen.
Working in oil on paper, she creates small, fluid worlds where colour and gesture hover between clarity and dissolve. Her paintings do not depict memories, but the act of returning to them. Light, objects, and symbols emerge like fragments of recollection, each carrying the shimmer of something remembered as extraordinary. Every image holds a moment of recognition, when what has changed is not the subject but the viewer.
Beneath these sensorial spaces lies an awareness of how vision has been reshaped by digital saturation. The rhythm of scrolling enters her process as condition rather than theme, mirrored in her shifting brushwork and layered surfaces. Through the slowness of paint, she restores depth and duration to perception, inviting the viewer to linger where attention usually flickers.
Her forthcoming solo exhibition Wonderlust (2025) continues this enquiry, examining how speed and brightness alter the textures of memory. Drawing on the spatial ambition of Renaissance frescoes and the gestural language of painters such as Cecily Brown and Willem de Kooning, Rose sustains a balance between monumentality and intimacy. Her work calls for a recalibration of vision — a return to seeing as if for the first time.
RE:VISION: In Conversation
The Courtauld Institute of Art, East Wing Biennial, 2025
In October 2025, I spoke on RE:VISION: In Conversation, a panel series hosted by the Courtauld Institute of Art as part of the East Wing Biennial. Chaired by Romy Brill Allen, Director of RE:VISION, the programme brought together artists and audiences across six discussions exploring contemporary practice.
My panel, RE:LOCATE, focused on questions of authorship, perception, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine-led image-making. Drawing on my practice across painting, generative systems, and computational processes, I discussed how digital tools reframe traditional modes of making and seeing.
Interview with art critic Lee Sharrock Culturalee Mag
I spoke with art critic Lee Sharrock for Culturalee about In Between Subjects II (2024), and the way my work moves between custom-trained generative systems and traditional painting. We unpack “digital misreadings,” authorship, and how a dataset built from personal sketches can tip an image into something spectral and mythic.

Camilla Ridgers: Authorship, Systems, and the Contemporary Image
Camilla Ridgers: Authorship, Systems, and the Contemporary Image
ArtDaily published a feature examining my practice in relation to authorship, digital systems, and contemporary image production. Rather than framing technology as novelty, the article considers how my practice treats algorithmic systems as collaborators in the construction of images. It explores how meaning emerges through negotiation between human gesture and computational logic, and how this tension reshapes ideas of artistic agency today.
