Amy Robson

Amy Robson is a conceptual photographer and artist based in Edinburgh, currently in her fourth year of a BA(Hons) Photography degree at Edinburgh Napier University. Robson creates work focusing on themes of identity, human connection, and inner struggle, combining film and digital photography, along with techniques like hand-colouring and the use of flatbed scanners.

Currently, Robson’s work explores her understanding of her obsessive-compulsive disorder project The Observer (2024), first exhibited at AGITATE Gallery in Edinburgh, and her most recent project Maintenance (2025), exhibited in the Edinburgh Napier University Degree Show and later this year in Free Range at the Truman Brewery, London. Both projects focus the nature of compulsions. Where The Observer (2024) looks at the emotional impact of doing compulsions, Maintenance (2025) highlights the detrimental impact of these repetitive tasks and how one’s engagement with them makes their OCD worse.
