Cameron Platter (born 1978 in Johannesburg, South Africa) is an artist living and working in Cape Town, South Africa. Platter’s interdisciplinary artist practice includes drawing, painting, sculpture, and video, all of which examine consumption, excess, and conflict framed within a fragmented South African identity. Often working with recognizably common objects and motifs, Platter’s investigative artist practice examines aspects of consumerism, marketing, and expression on the ever-shrinking global stage.
