George Camille (born September 1, 1963) is a renowned^[1] visual artist from Seychelles^[2].

George Camille was born on the Island of Mahé, Seychelles in 1963, and spent his entire childhood on La Digue where he helped his parents run a bakery in La Passe. As a young child during his free time, George chose to pursue an Artistic Career. George was initially self-taught, he however later developed his uniquely eclectic style that distinctly identifies him through formal tuition. This was through two periods at Blackheath College of Art and Goldsmiths College, London which he completed and returned to Seychelles in 1987.

George Camille runs the George Camille gallery, at Kaz Zanana^[3] (Pineapple House), in Victoria, which displays his paintings, etchings and multimedia work in a traditional wooden house more than a century old, built entirely of local hardwood, with carved pineapple motifs in its balustrades.
