Profile

  • Born 1965 in Noongar Country/Perth, Australia. Based in Meanjin/Brisbane, Australia.

Robert Andrew is a descendant of the Yawuru people, whose Country encompasses the lands and waters in and around Rubibi (Broome) in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. His work delves into personal and family histories that have been denied or forgotten. While his art speaks to the past, it also articulates a contemporary relationship with Country. Andrew often combines programmable machinery with natural materials such as earth pigments, ochres, rocks, and soil to explore historical, cultural, and personal events that have been buried or distanced by the dominant paradigms of Western culture.
