Currently residing in Bristol, England, Camila is a multifaceted artist whose expertise ranges from painting to photography to organ themed plant arrangements.Camila says of her work,

"The most fascinating and intricate of biological structures, yet we rarely pay heed to the organs inside our body. Regardless of whether we fill ourselves with toxins or nourishing food, whether we exercise or not - our organs sustain us, working away effortlessly and unnoticed.

In a similar way, plants flourishing in the urban environment are a testament to nature’s indifference to our goings on. They grow out of the sides of buildings, in brick walls and between the cracks in concrete, despite the traffic and pollution."
