Robert Ashton has been exhibiting continuously and has work held in many of the public collections in Australia including National Gallery of Victoria, Art gallery of NSW and National Gallery of Australia. His work is also held in private collections in USA and Europe.
His work embraces a range of photographic mediums from digital to large format analogue, in particular photogravure printing and more recently wetplate collodion.
Ashton’s work embraces an interaction between light and space, between control and chance, always looking for the place where the literal meets the abstract.
