Robin Hungerford was born in Sydney in 1982. He completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) at the University of Western Sydney in 2006 and a Masters of Visual Arts in sculpture at Sydney University in 2010. Hungerford’s work utilises a diverse range of media and techniques including performance, papier-mâché, drawing, video, kinetic installations and, on occasion, live insects and animals. Hungerford is particularly interested in the way in which technology shapes our culture, the perception of the world around us as well as the interior world of our own bodies.
