Daura Campos is a visual artist and photographer based in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. In her practice, she investigates social issues through experimental photographic techniques, pushing against expectations of representation and exploring what is often left unseen. Her process allows analog film to exist as a reactive being beyond a medium of choice and aims to ignite discourse about our relationship with photography and society.
Daura has exhibited at the CICA Museum (South Korea), MK Gallery (England), Rotterdam Photo (Netherlands), Pinakothek der Moderne (Germany), Experimental Photo Festival (Spain), Museum of Art of Pereira (Colombia), Gallery 44 (Canada), and Open Eye Gallery (England).
Her work has been recognized by the Analog Sparks Awards (2024) with 2nd Place in the Technique categories, a high commendation from The JUST Art Award (2023), a special mention from the Art Vue Foundation Yearly Prize (2022), a FORGE Fellowship (2022), The Alternative Art School Fellowship (2021), and others.
Daura received her Bachelor of Film and Media from PUC Minas in Belo Horizonte in 2024. She works as an independent artist and teaches alternative photographic processes.
