Stuart Robinson
Penryn
I am a mixed media sculptural- installation artist currently living and working in Penryn, Cornwall.
My work is predominantly installation and sculptural objects informed by, and utilising photography as an important element of the working process.I like to produce objects and environments that are intriguing but overall visually engaging, often using seemingly familiar objects and shapes.
The work explores imagery and inspiration from a wide range of sources across art, media, landscape and popular culture digested and condensed into object and form. It explores familiar shapes, colour and materials from our daily encounters with media, signs and surroundings
