Robin Kid a.k.a. The Kid is an autodidact multidisciplinary neo-Pop contemporary artist from Dutch descent. His works hijack a variety of social, political, and traditional imagery of the past and present, with rebellious, religious, fantastical, and in some ways offensive undertones. He pulls intuitively from the world of advertising, the Internet, the entertainment industry, and his childhood memories, to produce ambitious, enigmatic, and thought-provoking narratives, which question our polarized world of the 21st century. He confronts the audience with, among other notions, social determinism and the thin frontier between innocence and corruption within his young generation in modern societies. Robin Kid a.k.a. The Kid lives and works in Paris, France where he has his main studio for drawings and paintings and in Amsterdam, The Netherlands for sculptures.
