About Jane

Jane Michaele Cameron is in her third year of her PhD at UNSW Art & Design in Sydney. Jane worked for many years in publishing as a graphic designer and illustrator specialising in books, and also taught in higher education in the fields of art and design theory and history. Earlier still, she studied fine arts, sculpture, and design at university and tech. In this detail of ‘The ants go marching’ her love of drawing is used to explore possible future scenarios as directed by events relating to climate change in Australia. This idea was explored further in ANThropocene: embracing trouble, a short stop-motion film. These works speculate on the survival and future evolution of ants in a posthuman landscape. The ant obsession continues unabated in Jane’s current practice-based research project which investigates more-than-human vision through in-situ observation in the field, interpretation of scientific research, drawing and photomontage to creatively interpret an ant’s point of view using scale, the ant’s visual spectrum, and audio recordings.
