Biography

Biography

Anne Robinson is a multidisciplinary visual  artist. Her practice is mainly film based, often collaborative: concerned with the perception and politics of time passing, ’queering’ technologies and working speculatively with archives to ‘listen to the past’. The Hurrier (2021), Poor on  the  Roll (2021) Wakeful (2018) andThrashing in the Static (2014) draw on archival documents to expand on hidden lives. Formally, these film works test the boundaries of documentary and experimental form. Screenings include APT, CCA Glasgow, Whitechapel, and Southwark Park Galleries. Film/Sound  collaborations include percussionist Limpe Fuchs and Breathing Space and The Hurrier as an  expanded work  included a ‘broadside’ ballad, and conversation/podcast with Feminist Library, on Art, Class and Bodies. Robinson was a commissioned artists  for ‘Queer Times’ at GoMA in 2018 and as a former member of See Red Women’s Workshop, co-wrote See Red: Feminist Posters 1974-1990  in 2016. Several See Red works are in ‘Women in Revolt!’ Tate Britain, 2023/24. Her films feature in Rachel Garfield’s book Experimental Filmmaking and Punk (2021) and in the Rebel Dykes documentary (2021). She holds a practice-led PhD on temporality and art and teaches Fine Art at Middlesex University.
