About

A new unique studio and gallery space of artist Robert Diken located in the Metuchen Arts District, across Main St from the Forum Theater. Featuring art for sale, gallery shows, guest artists, workshops and community art gatherings!I’m a self-taught American artist and the owner of Basecamp Studio & Gallery in Metuchen, NJ where I create using different materials. My early dream of being a landscape architect changed due to another job. I started drawing to handle practical landscape planning in my own garden. Nature gives me lots of chances to capture its colors, textures, and forms in my unique way. I enjoy experimenting with different subjects and materials. Most of my work happens when I focus on the process instead of the final product. Solving problems along the way is challenging but very rewarding. In the end, I aim to create art that surprises. I’m curious about new ways to express myself, influenced by abstraction and graffiti. I try to stay open to new ideas without overthinking that might block my inspiration.
