From Conceptual Art Installations to Beautiful Artworks for Your Home
Welcome to Alchemi Art. I’m Mara Robinson, a professional photographic artist who loves creating interesting artwork using the medium of photography in all its varied forms. That might be one of the early processes that use light-sensitive chemistry or a bang-up-to-date digital camera on a drone.
Photographic art can take many forms, from pieces designed for a specific location that is all about ideas to thoughtful pieces to grace your home.
Interested in Alternative Photography? then check out the
Is That Really Photography Podcast
Alongside creating my own photographic art, I also host the ‘Is That Really Photography? Podcast’ where I get to completely geek out on different forms of photography from the earliest to the latest. Pretty much anything not currently part of the mainstream. I talk to other artists and photographers about what they do, their inspiration and stories. Photography is so much more than just snapping a photo on your phone. Check out the podcast and my amazing guests to find out more.
Starting Collecting Photographic Art
Collecting art, including photography and photographic art, for your home can be inspiring and a wonderful way to personalise the space you live in. Sure it can feel scary at first, but honestly, it can be a lot of fun. I hear people say things like, ‘I don’t know anything about art’ and they are put off. In my opinion, everyone knows about art, at least the only art that matters which is what speaks to them. One of my aims as an artist with Alchemi Art is to create beautiful magical art with prices to suit all pockets. You can start your collection in person at events or here on my website via my online shop.
It was the perfect gift at the perfect moment! I love this art and the history behind the processes.

It’s not a Blog – It’s where I share the Journey…
Calling it a blog seems to be a disservice in some way. I think of it more like my online diary or journal where I share my journey as a photographic artist and thoughts on all that entails.

I am fascinated with light sensitive chemistry and all forms of photography. Over time this developed into a curiosity about art as well.
