About
Rob White
Art
Rob’s practice is guided by visions, memories, and dreams, exploring themes of landscape, sacred spaces and mortality through a materials driven process. His compositions and sculptural objects evoke curiosity and emotion, reflecting profound personal experiences surrounding grief and loss. These works act as portals into silent, intangible inner worlds, offering audiences access to seldom visited and otherworldly spaces.
Alongside this contemplative practice, Rob also produces work that engages with the absurd and can be darkly humorous. Through scratchy drawings, splattered paintings and roughly constructed sculptural objects, he captures fleeting thoughts and observations with a raw immediacy. These works function as streams of consciousness, offering satirical commentary on contemporary life and reframe the everyday through an offbeat lens. Together, these two strands of practice, one deeply introspective, and the other irreverent and observational, reveal a multifaceted approach that embraces both the metaphysical and the absurd.
