Robin Davisson is a Washington, D.C.-based artist who creates dynamic and color-filled abstract art that is infused with a curiosity in material, scale, and gesture. A STEM researcher for nearly three decades, Robin’s work reflects a continued love of experimentation that blurs the line between art and science to achieve work that is magnetic and fresh. She practices and exhibits her work in her Georgetown studio-gallery, StudioLab RD (among other galleries and places). Verging from convention, the gallery is also home to a popular Salon Series that hosts conversations around the intersection of art and other industries.

Robin attended the University of Iowa where she received three degrees including her PhD. For over 25 years, she led biomedical research laboratories, multimillion-dollar NIH grants and large teams of research professionals. After a transformative stint at the Penland School during a sabbatical, Robin decided to embark on her second act as an artist in earnest. She has exhibited at renowned galleries in and around the D.C. area, and is represented by Calloway Fine Art, Washington, D.C. Her work has been included in Architectural Digest, Vanity Fair, World of Interiors, and the Washingtonian.
