Kenya (Robinson) Bio

About The Artist

Kenya (Robinson), as she prefers to write her name, is a Brooklyn-based artist who addresses popular culture in her work, merging themes of mass consumerism with notions of social consciousness as well as viewpoints on cultural standards and constructs. In her work Robinson "tweaked gender and racial stereotypes, in pieces involving things like melted Goody combs, synthetic blond hair and women's magazines," according to an April 2011 New York Times interview.
