Robyn E Woolston
Woolston is a visual artist who works across installation, photography, moving image and print.
Often working in non-gallery spaces, across community settings and within archives or sites of listed significance.
Her work focusses upon developing creative frameworks for ecological and emotional recovery via public realm interventions, socially engaged practice and site-specific responses.
'Robyn often examines issues that others shy away from, from difficult emotions to consumer waste. In so doing, she seeks to make visible that which is forgotten, left behind and discarded.'
Ann Bukantas, Head of Fine Art. National Museums Liverpool
Previous installations have included 132,000 plastic knives and forks, 7500 ice-cream containers, 45,000 carrier bags, a selection of trees from Ash to Silver Birch as well as a reproduction Las Vegas sign.
Previous locations have included Fort George, National Trust Acorn Bank, National Trust Penrhyn Castle, Edge Hill railway station, Hull railway station, Holst Birthplace Museum, Edge Hill University, an empty shop unit in Blackburn town centre and a grove of trees on Ullswater in the Lake District (UK).
She has shown across the UK, Europe and Australia.
Supervisors: David Haley and John Hyatt
