In his own words…

Caleb Speller was born in Victoria, British Columbia at the end of 1982.  He lives with his wife in a one bedroom suite with large windows.  In the evening on a clear day the sunset paints the rooms completely orange with its light.  It is here, at his desk, where he draws and collages before heading out to take some photographs, walk down to the shed to paint, or bike out to his ceramic studio.  His artwork explores themes such as Canadian nationality, photographic performance, fabricated family history, and the human relationship man has with eternity.
