Bio

Cameron Schoepp is an Artist and Educator. Schoepp holds an MFA in studio art from Texas Christian University. Professor Schoepp has taught sculpture at TCU in Fort Worth TX since 2003 and previously at the University of Dallas for 13 years.
 
Cameron Schoepp, an artist living and working in Texas since 1985, has two distinct practices. One as a solo artist and the other, a collaboration known as Jet Construction with Mark Anderson FAIA and Peter Anderson FAIA which launched in 1984 and has grown into ambitious large-scale installations exhibited broadly in the US. Schoepp’s solo practice pulls in closer, employing materials in a matter-of-fact manner to present deceptively simple ideas that increase in complexity as the work unfolds, challenging expectations and using the subsequent discomfort to heighten the personal phenomenological experiences for the viewer.
 
In 2016, Schoepp, with his late wife, artist Terri Thornton, conceived and built Blind Alley projects ( https://www.blindalleyprojects.com ) a small walk-by-gallery in their neighborhood at the edge of Fort Worth’s cultural district. When it launched in 2020, Blind Alley became unique exhibition space, generating discourse and social opportunities for the DFW art community as well as an enriching experience for passers-by.
