Yan Camille

2003

My name is Yande Camille, I am an arts activist who comes from the Ubud district. My work leans more towards expressionism. My biggest artistic influences are Afandi and Putu Sutawijaya. I express my life journey through expressionism. I see success as living through my art, which also enhances my creativity and supports me economically. My ideal workspace is accessible to a wider audience, and I aim to sell my work beyond my current location. My dream project is to create a 2m x 2.5m artwork and establish my own studio. My best piece, "Spirit of Bali," represents Barong, a symbol of virtue in Balinese mythology. Critics encourage me to keep improving. My favorite quote is by Pidi Baiq: “If your success is measured by ratings, you are not an artist, but an art laborer.”
