Cameron Platter (born July 27, 1978) is a Cape Town and Durban, South Africa-based contemporary visual artist. Cameron Platter’s interdisciplinary work examines consumption, excess, detritus, discord, and conflict within a fragmented South African identity, and fills the ordinary and marginal with incendiary new meaning. Working from everyday experience with subjects overlooked or considered delinquent, sordid and lowbrow, he reconnoitres notions and concepts on the outside fringes of South Africa’s popular culture. Platter’s work acts as a locus, documenting a dysfunctional contemporary reality.
