The Olde Nishidai Route
 | In her first Japanese show Camilla explored different aspects of travel. She had spent the previous two years on the road and had both the positive and negative experiences of her journey to document.
'The Old Nishidai Route' was both the name of the show or art party and the focal piece of work. Camilla was keen to demonstrate how travel comes with an aspect of repetition and indeed boredom. In this case she looked at a simple commute on the overcrowded Tokyo metro system. How could one bear a life time of sweaty over packed carriages buzzing with head phones and the latest in gaming technology? In a society where the norm is the only way even to be seen doodeling on a train turned heads. So, she doodled every day one drawing per station. She was her own therapist in the crowd.
'I love Wednesday's @ McCluskies' reveals a more charming and exciting side of travel. As the guests enjoyed the party they could find photos of the artist wearing her t-shirt as she traveled the globe on the first 9 month leg of her journey. The photos corresponded to a world map that hung on the wall documenting her path.
Camilla made the show a casual party to embrace the Japanese custom of welcoming guests and relaxing in the precious moments that aren't spent working.
