Meet the artist & maker

We have designed, built and programmed drawing robots since 2020. The robots look at a person and draw their portrait or take an address and draw a map of the neighbourhood. Sketchy Robot’s work has been displayed in galleries and at art fairs in New York, Zurich, Seoul and Lima. Being drawn by this robot or seeing it in action is a truly unique experience that we discovered connects with everyone on some level.
