My name is Rose Robinson, and I am an artist working mainly in ceramics, painting, printmaking, and storytelling, though you can also find me dancing, binding books, and sewing quilts in my free time. I was raised among the marshes of Newburyport, Massachusetts, and now share my time with the mountains of Vermont. I am in my final semester at Middlebury College in Middlebury, Vermont where I am pursuing a degree in Studio Art.
I see my work as children’s literature for adults about how to be children again. I want to get back to being the soft, feeling, embodied, and earthly animals that we are. I see play, rest, mischief, and conversations with the more-than-human world as sites for that return. I remember being young and understanding my house as a place where I could find wonder. What would I find among the dust under a cabinet? What could I make with the mud in the backyard? If I watched from the apple tree, who would I see over the fence? Each day contained a story worth telling. I want to rediscover that relationship with the world, one where pleasure, meaning, and fulfillment can be found in the small moments of the everyday.
