Camille Walala
Camille Walala (born 1975 as Camille Vic-Dupont), is a French multi-disciplinary designer based in London, United Kingdom, best known for her life-size murals and installations as well as her post-modernism-inspired patterns.
Life and career
Camille Walala was born in Provence, France, moved to the United Kingdom at the age of 23, and later studied textile design at the University of Brighton. In 2009, she established Studio Walala in East London.
In 2017, Walala was invited by NOW Gallery in South London to create an interactive, life-size installation, for which the studio created an immersive so-called "temple of wonder".
In 2021, during a period of lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Walala reimagined the Design Museum shop as a grocery store, selling essential products re-designed by emerging artists such as Kentaro Okawara, Joey Yu, Isadora Lima, and Michaela Yearwood-Dan.
