Hey, I'm Rob Wegh
A figurative artist specialising in sculpture and drawing, currently based in both Italy and the Netherlands. I was born in 2002 in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. I finished my VWO-level high school in 2020 at the Citadel College in the Netherlands. I then moved to Florence to attend the Florence Academy of Art, where I earned multiple scholarships and graduated with the "Best Sculpture of the Year" award in 2023. Now, I serve as a Graduate in Residence and a principal instructor for drawing and sculpture at the academy. I also maintain a studio for new and ongoing projects.
