Robyn Nesbitt (born 1984) is a South African artist currently living and working in Johannesburg.[1] Nesbitt attended Witwatersrand University, Johannesburg.[2] In 2007 she was a recipient of the Spier Contemporary award.[3] Nesbitt's work is distinguished by her meticulous observation of everyday events ranging from the ordinary routines of our life to the celestial routines that surround us.[4] Humorous, poetic, and banal moments become stylized in mediums which include research, process, documentation, drawing, video, and photography.[5][6][7] She often collaborates with Nina Barnett.[8][9]
