Don't is a limited edition publication to accompany Camille Henrot's solo exhibition at The Perimeter. 

Don’t brings together two bodies of work by Camille Henrot: the Dos and Don’ts painting series (2021- ongoing) and a selection of drawings spanning 2014 to early 2026. Drawing is foundational to Henrot’s expansive practice which moves fluidly across painting, sculpture, installation and film. A daily exercise in seeing and thinking, Henrot has said, “If I don’t draw, I don’t really feel myself.” The act of drawing links these two bodies of work, and the exhibition juxtaposes the Dos and Don’ts and the drawings to explore consistent themes in Henrot’s practice such as the relationship between digital and analogue form, the creative process and social behaviours, desire and the formation of the self.

Born in France in 1978, Camille Henrot lives and works in New York. Over the past twenty years Henrot has developed a critically acclaimed practice which captures the complexity of living as both private individuals and global citizens in an increasingly connected and over-stimulated world.

The catalogue is published by The Perimeter and features an essay by Polly Staple. Designed by Thomas Spallek and edited by Henrot and Staple.
