“Robinson both interrogates and celebrates the debris of pop culture with an intellectual and formal rigor that doesn’t betray the work’s essential emotional sensation. His films are simultaneously familiar and unexpected, playful and terrifying, and assembled with a magic sensibility that suggests almost occult transcendence.”
- Luke Goodsell, 4:3
“Robinson makes familiar media strange again, exploring collective memory through a poetics of devotion and loss.”
-Whitney Museum of American Art
“Robinson’s collaged films thus do double duty: while pointing to the mechanisms of mediation and manufactured sentiment, he unlocks the power popular images exercise over our psychological and emotional makeup, reconfiguring them in a way that is funny but not ironic, sincere but not naïve, heartfelt but not sentimental.”
— Henriette Huldisch, Aurora: The Infinite Measure
