Artist Statement for Gary’s Lilies

These paintings of lily ponds, junglescapes, tropical life and swamp growth are each given different treatments of abstraction with varying degrees of intensity. "Gary's Lilies" also contains the most recent works, made with airbrushed acrylic on canvas and painted over with oil in select areas. Unifying the body of work is the palette- with multiple pinks, greens and flesh tones, artifice and the natural world are embraced equally.

Born in 1976 in Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada. He studied painting at Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design and the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. Receiving his BFA from NSCAD in 2002 he moved to Toronto where he focused on producing and exhibiting painting, sculpture and video.

In 2009 he moved to Berlin and is currently living and working in Berlin, Germany.

Robin Fry is an active artist and his artworks have been shown in galleries in Vancouver, Toronto, Tokyo and Berlin through the solo exhibitions, two person exhibitions and group-exhibitions since 1999. He was also involved with various experimental music groups.

His debut exhibition in Japan was held in 2012 with Hiromart Gallery in Tokyo.
