In this piece, I poured raw emotion through vibrant pastels, blending abstract forms with surreal, geometric shapes. The work, Shift, is a follow on from the works Episode and State 1. This work was created when the artist felt that she was finally moving away from the negative states and towards a state of false control and "recovery".
Robella is a bold multi-media abstract artist from post-apartheid South Africa, currently based in Paris, with a background in theatre, dance, and visual art. She employs mixed media, incorporating natural fibers like wool and combining painting with movement, glue, and ink to create rich textures. Her style examines intersections of collective and personal history within feminist frameworks, always challenging perceptions. Her work vibrates with emotional honesty and a powerful urge to prompt reflection and essential conversations.
