Andrea Robinson

Andrea Robinson takes family histories, memories and artefacts as a starting point for her prints, artists’ books and installations. “I work in series to create visual narratives and to tell half-remembered stories that stem from the places where my family have settled or the places they have passed through. My prints combine a range of screen print techniques, including print-collage, photo-stencil and hand painted mono print, and incorporate maps, found images, hand drawn elements, my own photographs and photos from family albums - birds often appear.”

Andrea is a founder member of print collective The Friday Group, and a member of Sprout Arts and the Printmakers Council. She has exhibited her work in galleries and art spaces throughout the UK, and internationally, with group exhibitions in Berlin, Dublin, and the Court of Justice of the European Union, Luxembourg. Her prints and artist books are held in private collections, in public archives at Scarborough Museum and Art Gallery, Chelsea College of Art, Tate Britain and the V&A, and online for Art UK which showcases artworks from the UK’s public collections. Her artwork has been published in Their Eyes Were Watching God (WBN United Artists), DIVERSIFLY (Fair Acre Press) and in Riggwelter journal of creative arts.
