Robyn Woolston’s socially-engaged practice elicits site-specific responses to environmental concerns and human agency. Her work across installation, photography, moving image and print explores eco-grief, climate anxiety, land rights and plant extinction within the extraction-rich geographical environment of Texas, USA. For the Art Galleries at TCU Woolston will present a new film and a series of discursive objects resulting from ideas and materials gathered during residency periods in Fort Worth (2019-22) and through collaboration with TCU’s Department of Psychology and BRIT, the Botanical Research Institute of Texas.
Robyn Woolston’s recent solo exhibitions include Last(Chance), a 10yr Retrospective during COP26 @ the Pipe Factory, Glasgow, UK (2021); Men Marched Asleep, Wilfred Owen Centenary Commission, The Williamson Art Gallery and Museum, Merseyside, UK (2018); and, Suite Sorrows, Holst Birthplace Museum, Cheltenham, UK (2018). She has also participated in numerous group exhibitions including In Extinctia, Curve Gallery, Newcastle, Australia (2021); Straining Every Sinew as part of the Quiet Carnival, Friction Arts, Birmingham, UK (2020); The Listening Station, The Wilson, Cheltenham Library, Cheltenham General Hospital and Leisure at Cheltenham, UK (2018); and Cultural Traffic, Hester St Fair during New York Art Week (2018).
