IT’S OKAY YOU THREW ME AWAY

MARCH 2018 / LOS ANGELES / EXHIBITION

Learning and celebrating self-love, while exploring the evolution of the imbalances it brings, Robinson flushes these emotions through multiple mediums and platforms. Having bustle upbringings from Los Angeles to Baltimore, Robinson imbibed and mixed each environment to develop his own craft and ideologies. However, Robinson has lacked social engagement, which has led him to create works to engage in conversation to break his own and others’ biases and barriers to champion forwardness in a bull-headed society. Robinson’s most recent installation, Auditory, focused on the sounds of Russia and the comparison of the western world’s stereotypes on African men and the former Soviet Union.

During his study of Sustainability at Cal-State Northridge, Robinson has headlined various group shows, but It’s Okay You Threw Me Away (IOYTMA) is his first solo exhibition. Robinson has shied away from doing what he calls “art turn-ups”, were the gallery space is solely a communion of dizziness and backs towards canvases. Robinson hopes to capture the idea of rebirth in IOYTMA, whether it’s finding love again or repurposing abandoned materials to create utilitarian household items.
