Robyn Carey

Robyn Carey is a printmaker, painter, and curator from Dublin. She creates primarily abstract expressionist silkscreen prints and acrylic paintings. Her work at its core is an exploration of relationships, both physical, mental, and theoretical. She explores this through expressive, gestural mark-making coupled with abstracted structures. Robyn's work often reflects her interpretations of a scientific, philosophical, or historical theory. Aesthetically she is drawn to both ancient Irish neolithic imagery and textures, contrasted by clean lines of modernism. Her work aims to grab the viewer's attention with its strong imagery and compositions. It then asks them to delve a little deeper upon a closer look, to unearth a narrative being depicted through abstraction and symbolism.
