Robyn Woolston

Film and Video, Installation, Photography, Talk/Discussion, Writing

Passionate about people, relationships and the way the world works, my practice reveals structures and raises questions concerning social, economic and ecological perspectives.

Working nationally and internationally, often with multiple project partners, I 'activate' spaces by re-appropriating waste, confronting dogmas and igniting creativity at an individual and organisational level.

My processes involve Installation, photography, moving image, print and on-line projects.

As a Producer my practice also covers Curating, Research & Development having recently completed a Master of Arts (by Research) within MIRIAD / Manchester Institute for Research and Innovation in Arts and Design (2011)

- During 2011/2012 I will be continuing the work I co-founded with 'Post' by developing Research, Residency and Exchange 'models' within Istanbul and beyond:

Re: Robyn Woolston / Art in Education

'Building on What We’ve Got at the Walker Gallery with artist Robyn Woolston stands out as it epitomised Culturepool’s belief that there’s lots on offer in the city already. Some of the group had never been to the gallery before whilst some hadn’t been to there for more than 30 years! We were introduced (or re-introduced) to the permanent exhibition and creatively responded to what we’d seen: we both experienced and created art. It was very special.'
