THE SHROUDED FIGURE
11,000 shrouded figures immediately captures the viewer's attention. This immense scale is intentional, creating a sense of magnitude and gravity that demands contemplation. With Rob’s previous work reaching close to 14 million online views and world media attention, we have seen the effect this form of art can bring. It challenges us to confront uncomfortable truths and engage with the collective human experience, making it a profound and impactful form of art.
artist execution
Rob is an endurance artist: each shrouded figure is created by him alone, over an extensive period of time with no additional aid. This form of art adds another layer of emotion and poignancy to the piece. By immersing the audience in a shared experience, endurance art can create a profound sense of connection and empathy between artist and viewer. Additionally, the long hours and metal resilience in creating this piece is nothing compared to the terrifying reality of those working in modern day slavery.
