ROSALIND ROBINSON RWA SWA

Rosalind Robinson is an Academician at the Royal West of England Academy and a member of the Society of Women Artists. She exhibits regularly in London, Bath and Bristol.


"The direct gaze can be compelling and the emotive qualities of facial expressions are a constant pre-occupation of my work in which I intend to pose questions about time and place and to suggest a narrative. The focus of my work is slowly shifting as I continue to explore the possibilities of expressing the complexity of human interactions within the context of figurative painting.
In more recent paintings I hope to express the tensions and emotional implications of the way we position ourselves physically, in relation to others. Through my work I hope to convey the complicated beauty of fleeting moments in time"
