Elaine Cameron-Weir\u2019s contemplative objects made from carefully sourced materials allow us to consider the ways in which artifice and spectacle have been used to perpetuate systems of belief. Her major installation from the most recent Venice Biennale in 2022 invoked sites of provisional operations and religious reflection by transforming the gallery with modular steel subflooring, neon and electric flicker lights, and repurposed objects previously used for military and industrial purposes.<br \/>\nIn addition to the Venice Biennale, Cameron-Weir recently opened a solo exhibition at Hannah Hoffman in Los Angeles, CA. Other solo shows from the past two years include the SCAD Museum of Art (2022) and the Henry Art Gallery University of Washington (2021). Recently her work was on view at the University of California, Berkeley Art Museum as part of an important exhibition titled \u201cNew Time: Art and Feminisms in the 21st Century.\u201d Other select solo exhibitions include &#8220;exhibit from a dripping personal collection,&#8221; Dortmunder Kunstverein (2018); \u201cOutlooks: Elaine Cameron-Weir,\u201d Storm King Art Center, New York (2018) where the artist installed a steel mesh sphere for motorcycle stunts known as \u201cglobe of death\u201d on the top of a hill; and \u201cviscera has questions about itself,\u201d New Museum, New York (2017). She has shown both in the U.S. and abroad, in group exhibitions at the Philadelphia Museum of Art; Remai Modern, Saskatoon; GAMeC, Bergamo; FUTURA, Prague; among many others.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13286\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13286\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13286 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-1024x697.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-1024x697.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-768x522.jpg 768w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-1536x1045.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-2048x1393.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-696x474.jpg 696w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-1068x727.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CWe-VB_02-1920x1306.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13286\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">installation view, The Milk of Dreams, curated by Cecilia Alemani, 59th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, Venice, IT, April 23 &#8211;
