Directory

Robert received his BFA and MFA from Massachusetts College of Art and is an Associate Professor in the Illustration department at MassArt. Robert received a 2022 Mass Cultural Council fellowship in Printmaking and has participated in two Illuminus Boston public art events. He has contributed to several Big Ink woodcut print sessions and in 2017 his permanent public art project repaired the missing signage on the chimney of the historic Haffenreffer brewery in Jamaica Plain.

Robert combines a variety of materials like wooden structures, topographical maps and digital projections in ways that evoke a simultaneous process of amelioration and deterioration. Through the passage of time, only traces of the original instances may remain; the temporal residue of a previous existence.

Robert’s art has been featured in Creative Quarterly Magazine, Cloth Paper Scissors Magazine, The Pulse of Mixed Media (North Light Books), Art Revolution (North Light Books), The Woven Tale Press and Artscope Magazine and his work is in the collection of Wellington Management, Liberty Mutual and private collections nationally and internationally.

Numerous galleries in the Boston area have shown Robert’s 2D and 3D mixed media work including the Kingston Gallery, Mercury Gallery, FPAC Gallery, 13 Forest Gallery, Sunne Savage, 808 Gallery and the Copley Society of Art.
