Big stories. Bigger impact. Positive vibes.

Cameye Arts is a multidisciplinary studio reimagining the power of story to amplify diverse voices and spark transformative action - inspired by and in synchronicity with, our one and only home: Planet Earth.

“Imagination, working at full strength,

can shake us out of fatal, adoring self-absorption

and make us look up and see – with terror or with relief –

that the world does not in fact belong to us at all”

Ursula K. Le Guin

CURRENT PROJECTS

We’re focusing on two flagship projects that connect community, art, and climate action:

Footprints of Love

A living LGBTQ+ archive of Newham - preserving stories of love, resistance, and joy across generations. (Supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.)



CLIMACTION

An evolving climate-action art movement co-created with local communities, blending performance, storytelling, and collective care.
These projects sit at the heart of what we do: creative work that listens deeply, celebrates diversity, and sparks action for people and the planet.

WHY WE EXIST

Because stories change everything

We tell the stories that often go unheard – from LGBTQ+ elders reclaiming history to climate artists responding to crisis with imagination and hope.

 

Our mission as a CIC is simple:
to use creativity as a force for connection, care, and change.
Every project we develop aims to leave a trace of something – skills, confidence, belonging, and new ways of seeing the world.

OUR PRACTICE

Participation is power.


We work with people, not on them.
Our approach is rooted in co-creation, listening, and ethics – shaped by anthropology, filmmaking, and artistic practice.
Every story we share is built from trust, care, and collaboration.

Collaborations & Storytelling

While our main focus is developing our own creative projects, we’re also open to select collaborations with organisations, social enterprises, or community groups working for positive social or environmental change.

 

We call this our Green Storytelling practice
audio-visual stories that celebrate people and projects making a real difference.

 

We only take on collaborations that align with our mission and values. If you’re building something hope-full for people, culture, or the planet – we’d love to hear from you.

 

We co/create:

Propose a Collaboration

Rooted in East London - Connected to the World
