| Printmaker and ceramicist
Robbin Juris studied surface and textile design at
Fashion Institute of Technology and ceramics at Chelsea
Ceramics Guild, after attending graduate school in
English literature at Columbia University. She began
showing her artwork at the age of 17, having been among
the winners of a New York City-wide competition for
inclusion in a group exhibition at Lever House. She has
had a solo show of raku-fired ceramic vessels at the
Chelsea Ceramics Guild Gallery. In addition to her work
as an artist, she has had a multifaceted career as a
magazine editor, attaining the position of Senior Editor
at PC Magazine. Here she developed a strong interest in
using computers as a medium for printmaking. Her
technique, which hearkens back to the earliest forms of
printmaking, builds a composite print out of many digital
layers of varying degrees of opacity, resulting in a very
complex image that is both modern and traditional.
Originally from New York City, she lives in Stamford,
Connecticut, with her husband and their two sons. |
