Robin Becker

artistic research - audiovisual - conceptual - DIY - experimental - sound - installation - performance - collaboration

Robin Becker is an artistic researcher, composer, visual artist, and musician. His practice finds itself navigating the field where visual arts and music overlap and therewith encompasses composition, performance, sound-installation, visual installation, sculpture, drawing, and video among other media. Within this practice he takes an experimental approach to artistic activity and research that takes inspiration from both artistic and scientific experimentation, while strongly focusing on indeterminacy, improvisation, collaboration, and social sculpture/composition.


ARE Artist Retreat

Residencies / exchange

  • 17-07-2023 t/m 30-07-2023
  • Location: WOLk, Rotterdam
  • During my ARE residency at WOLk I will, in collaboration with a variety of groups of participants from the neighborhood, further explore my NOTATIONS-series by creating NOTATIONS 21-28.07.23. This specific notation will become a spatial notation-installation in which the walls and ceilings of WOLk will be covered with the graphic notations that emerge over the course of various NOTATIONS-sessions led by me, notated directly onto these walls and ceilings.
