Camden Realism is an art style emerging in the Macarthur region, characterized by storytelling through representational artworks. Artists like Nola Tegel and Patricia Johnston, influenced by Alan Baker, capture local history and change. Exhibitions at Campbelltown Arts Centre showcase their work, reflecting the evolving landscape and community identity.
