1940 – 2022

“Through a passionate interest in architecture and design, I play with colour and form. The structure, the built quality of my work, is profoundly evident. The dynamics of colour relationships and formal equipoise echo through the works”

Bio

Richard Roblin’s meditations on form and color, shape and texture reveal a keen understanding of the natural world and our relationship to it as stewards of the Earth. Through careful layering of paint and an almost archaeological precision in the revelation of things hidden, Roblin crafts works of quiet beauty and power. While it could be said that his background as an architect informs his artistic practice – a duality that he has fostered his entire life – it seems equally appropriate to suggest that Roblin’s spiritual journey of self-discovery and inner reflection have honed his perception of the world and sing through his painting.

Richard Roblin’s works have been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and are held in numerous corporate and private collections around the world.
