Kameron Neal is a Brooklyn-based artist and designer working across video, installation and performance. As a public artist in residence with New York City’s Department of Records, he created Down the Barrel (of a Lens), an archival film installation interrogating NYPD surveillance. The New York Times described it as an “intriguing, sometimes disturbing juxtaposition between the watchers and the watched.”

Kameron was recently named a prizewinner in the National Portrait Gallery’s 2025 Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition. As a projection designer, he has worked on numerous productions including Ryan J. Haddad’s Dark Disabled Stories at the Public Theater, for which he received Lucille Lortel and Henry Hewes Design Awards. Kameron is also the recipient of a Creative Capital Award, the Vineyard Theatre’s Colman Domingo Award, a Princess Grace Award and an Opera America Award for his collaborations with composer Paul Pinto. With Shayok Misha Chowdhury, he co-created MukhAgni, an irreverent multimedia performance memoir about death that was presented at Under the Radar.

Artist residencies include MacDowell, Yaddo, CultureHub, ALL ARTS, MAXmachina, Ars Nova’s Makers Lab and the Public Theater’s Devised Theater Working Group. Kameron’s work has been seen in Forbes and HYPEBEAST and presented at a variety of institutions including Lincoln Center, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Museum of the City of New York, Ann Arbor Film Festival, Williams College Museum of Art and Sound Scene at the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum. Kameron is a 2024–25 Movement Lab Fellow at RISD in the Film/Animation/Video department.
