Robin X was painted in collaboration by Kingston based-artists Christina and Michael Fusco. He stated that the theme “X” made them think deeply about the climate change crisis and its potential for mass extinctions. “Normally this makes us think of endangered or rare species, but I wanted the viewer to imagine a world where future generations can only view our common Robin as a fossilized artifact,” Fusco says. “I hope this reminds us all to enjoy the beauty all around, no matter how common or easily overlooked.”
