Robin Hill

Robin Hill is the recipient of a 2024 Anonymous Was A Woman Award, a 2027 Kala Art Institute Artist Residency, two Pollock-Krasner Foundation Awards, two New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowships in Sculpture, and a National Endowment for the Arts Sculpture Fellowship.

 

Robin Hill is an artist whose work focuses on the intersection between drawing, photography, and sculpture. Her recent work takes on a collaborative sensibility, where objects and materials which have been rejected by others have served as starting points for acts of transformation.

 

The underlying conceptual thread that moves throughout her work is her interest in collection, extraction, and re-presentation, and in transforming seemingly inconsequential matter into meaningful statements about matter itself, which ultimately becomes a mediation on time.  She strives to give shape to nuance and to relocate familiar things in an unfamiliar order. While handmade might best describe her early work, hand-altered is a more apt description for the work she is doing today.
