Camille Rose Garcia was born in 1970 in Los Angeles, California and grew up in the generic suburbs of Orange County, visiting Disneyland and going to punk shows with the other disenchanted youth of that era. Her paintings of creepy cartoon children living in wasteland Fairy tales are critical commentaries on the Failures of capitalist utopias. Creative influences include Phillip K. Dick, William Burroughs, Henry Darger, Walt Disney, as well as politically aware bands like The Clash and Dead Kennedys.
Her recent solo show Retreat Syndrome explored ideas about the uses of Fantasy and escapism to deal with trauma. Her work has appeared in Juxtopoz, Art Issues, and Paper Magazine, among others, and can also be seen in the upcoming issue of BLAB magazine. She currently lives in Los Angeles.
