NADINE ROBINSON (b. 1968, London, United Kingdom) lives and works in New York.
Nadine Robinson mines religious doctrines and prophecies of doom as material for her most recent body of work, which often takes the form of sound sculptures. While her large-scale sculptural installations appear as minimal forms, they are informed by a vast range of references, including fairy tales, Rastafarianism, Hollywood films and childhood experiences in Jamaica. Her previous portrait work also contained sound elements, such as her "boom-painting" self-portrait, consisting of one black panel embedded with speakers in the form of a face.
Robinson has shown her work at Vienna Artweek, Vienna, Austria; the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York; and Grand Arts, Kansas City, MO. She has participated in Black Light/White Noise: Sound and Light in Contemporary Art, Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston, TX; and at the Brooklyn Museum, NY; among other group exhibitions.
