At the mouth, at the throat, 2025
Robin Megannity is a Manchester-based artist whose paintings and videos operate in the unstable leak-zone between memory, truth, and fiction, where images behave less as records than as contagions. His layered oil paintings emerge from shadowy feedback loops between the tactile and the virtual, where lived fragments are sampled, reprocessed, and spliced into synthetic reconstructions, provisional architectures, and acts of staging. Painting becomes a site of mimicry and signal-noise, absorbing the solemnity and muted strangeness of its own histories while remaining both archaic and anticipatory, suspended between psychological interior and speculative future.
