Robin is an artist and collector of everyday stuff who uses ad-hoc casting processes and printing techniques to make work that features transformations of recognisable things in unfamiliar situations. The act of walking, finding and discovering source materials is a big part of how he engages with the world around him. His practice often incorporates a performative ‘working in the field’ approach and he has a speculative lure for failed, obsolete or perishable subject matter. Robin’s recent projects have included plaster casting dead jellyfish washed up on a Welsh beach, to making moulds inside a nuclear power station. He has just come back from spending a month alone on a Scottish wilderness island. Selected threads of work are documented below.
