SUMMARY:-plasia: Artwork by Aurora Robson
DESCRIPTION:ON VIEW IN THE WINTER GARDEN GALLERY \nFor over two decades\, multimedia artist Aurora Robson’s practice has focused on transforming waste items into meaningful works of art\, giving new life to materials often associated with destruction and pollution. Robson has developed innovative techniques to repurpose plastic debris as a durable\, robust medium for sculpture—shifting its narrative from toxic waste to creative possibility and spreading awareness about environmental issues. \nBy working with discarded materials such as plastics\, bottles\, barrels\, buckets\, caps\, and other plastic debris\, Robson demonstrates the potential of these materials when applied thoughtfully in art and design\, fostering hope for the future. \nWith -plasia\, Robson’s exhibition in the Winter Garden Gallery\, the artist refers to the medical suffix that means “formation\, growth\, proliferation.” With this\, she is alluding to both the plastic material that she uses to create her work\, as well as to the organic shapes and forms of the artwork she is creating. \nThis exhibition features new work commissioned by Brookfield Properties Arts & Events and will be on view from January 28 through May 12\, 2025 \n\n									\n									\n									\n								\n									\n									\n									\n								ABOUT THE ARTIST: \nAurora Robson is a Toronto\, Canada-born artist who currently resides in the Hudson Valley. She previously lived and worked in New York City\, at which time she studied art history and visual art at Columbia University. Robson is a recipient of a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant\, a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship in Sculpture\, a TED/Lincoln Reimagine Prize and an art work grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. She has exhibited her work internationally in a variety of museums\, galleries\, and non-traditional spaces.
