'''Robi Szalay'''  is a ''Textile Artist'' <ref>[http://johncurtingallery.curtin.edu.au/shop/ John Curtin Gallery-Artistry]</ref> from Perth, [[Australia]].

She  began her creative career after winning the ''‘Evening Wear Sensation’'' category at the Smales WA Fashion Design Awards in 2000 for a body piece made entirely from wire and beads. Her work was swiftly taken up by two of Perth’s most prestigious boutiques, Elle and Pallas Bride. Two years on saw her take out two additional awards at the same event, well and truly establishing her career in the fashion industry as a jewellery artist.

With this in mind, Robi views her work, not only as surface design, but also as drawings, whether they be a simple hanging, stretched over a frame or worn on the body.
