Gwendoline Robin (BE)

Visual artist and performer Gwendoline Robin (1968) lives and works in Brussels. Since 1997 she has been producing installations and performances, carving out an oeuvre situated between sculpture and performance. With elements of fire, dynamite, glass, and earth, she develops unconstrained, volatile actions that play with fragility and danger. Robin has been presenting her work at international dance and performance festivals in Europe, North America, Australia and Asia since 2005. For a number of years, Gwendoline Robin has taught at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Tournai, at ARTS2 in Mons and at La Cambre in Brussels. In May 2014, she presented her latest creation: “I always wanted to meet a volcano” (“J’ai toujours voulu rencontrer un volcan”) at the Kunstenfestivaldesarts in Brussels.
