Robyn Packham was born in Gibraltar and grew up in rural Herefordshire. She gained her first-class honours degree in Drawing and Print while studying in Bristol, where she was also awarded the Vice Chancellor’s painting prize and the Royal Drawing School’s art residency at Dumfries House. Her practice explores human interaction and interpersonal chemistry / the natural world.
Robyn’s work has been shortlisted for numerous international awards including the 2024 Jackson’s Art Prize. Her work is in The University of West England’s private collection, and the King’s Foundation collection at Dumfries House.
Through drawing I gather observations and memories to form transient scenes that traverse the boundary between the physical world and that which lies beyond it. I develop these sketches and drawings into larger, mixed-media figurative works and paintings in acrylic and oil.
"The paintings I create act as windows into an acutely ephemeral world, while the female figure is a strong and defiant presence within it. This surreal ‘world’ allows me to reflect on integral themes of grief, identity, womanhood, memory, and the human condition." - Robyn Packham
