Robbins, a
Tucson artist who only recently earned his MFA from the University Of Arizona,
employs an appealing slapstick style to deal with the contentious subject of
black and queer identity. His large cartoonish ink drawings feature a boyish
everyman standing in for the artist, who intersects with police violence, mass
incarceration and other vicissitudes of African-American life; his videos,
meanwhile, comprise found animation clips (e.g. Disney’s Snow White) overlaid
with similar caricatures.
