About

Robin Muccari is an artist, illustrator, and designer located in Toronto, Ontario. His art ranges from analog to digital in collage, illustration, animation, and etchings. With a background in digital collage, editorial illustrations, he has transitioned to three-dimensional, analog collages. They display energetic motions in a static form, express impulsive emotions, and physical depth. Three dimensions add to a perspective in depth among photographs and shapes, while providing shadows commonly used as effects in digital collage. Robin continuously experiments with pieces in his studio space at Akin Collective.
