About the Artist

Elsa Robinson is an Edmonton-based mixed media artist, sculptor and painter whose decades long devotion to artistic practice has imbued her work with vibrancy, versatility and an intuitive spiritual poignancy. She began her art career as a self-taught artist, and she now holds a BA from the University of Alberta's Art and Design program and a MFA from the Vermont College of Fine Art. She was the recipient of the 2012 Fill Fraser Award for Outstanding Work in Visual Arts, awarded by the National Black Coalition of Canada. With careful attention to colour, shape, texture, intuition and the power of cultural symbols, Robinson expresses the notions of love, friendship, inner strength, equality and ancestral connection that most powerfully guide her own life. Robinson is also a passionate educator and community builder, who creates conversation, reflection and moments of undeniable emotional connection.
