John Paul Robinson
Dual Symmetry - translucent, red, glass, copper, abstract wall sculpture

2021

About the Item

Metaphors of time, space, earth, and its elements are reflected in the elegant and glowing glass sculptures by Canadian artist John Paul Robinson. This large, stunning glass and metal piece in deep red mimics the mesmerizing flames of a fire. In western culture, fire and water are essential elements of the earth that sustain life. The copper is fused to the glass. A pin on the back secures the work, and makes for easy mounting to the wall. “It’s important to me that my work be about something. So, I spend a lot of time reading, writing and basically researching ideas and issues that inform my work.” - John Paul Robinson He was educated at the Georgian College of Arts and Technology and the Ontario College of Art where he later taught for several years. Robinson is a Fellow of The Creative Glass Center of America, recipient of the Joan Chalmers Glass Award and has twice received the Best Glass Award at the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition. His works are in corporate, private and public collections. John Paul Robinson is represented exclusively by Oeno Gallery.

    By Ania Biczysko
    Located in Bloomfield, ON
    In this elegant sculpture by Ania Biczysko, fine ribbons of stainless-steel overlap in circles forming a cloud-like structure mounted on a tripod stand.

They appear in ever changing shapes and light however elusive and untouchable, we find them present in our everyday lives. Like our dreams, they guide us to something bigger and allude to an idea of pure beauty." Ania Biczysko She obtained a master’s degree in sculpture from the Fine Art Academy in Gdansk, Poland.
