I am a queercrip writer, artist, and historian living on Dharug land (Sydney, Australia). I am nonbinary and use they/them pronouns.

My work has been published by Overland, Cordite, Meanjin, Australian Poetry Journal, and Health & History, among others. Most of my publication history is available to read for free online here; I am happy to provide personal copies of any other work upon request. If you would like to contact me about my work or for a commission, you can do so here or by emailing me at robin.m.eames@gmail.com.

My website design is based on my own accessibility requirements, but please get in touch if you have any concerns related to accessing site content.

I am currently working on a PhD in History at the University of Sydney, researching trans history, pathologisation, criminalisation, and community relations in late nineteenth–early twentieth century Australia. I am a sessional teacher at USyd and a member of the National Tertiary Education Union. In the last few years I have worked with the State Library of NSW, the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, the Art Gallery of NSW, Newcastle Art Gallery, and the Blue Mountains Cultural Centre.

I am also involved in various forms of movement building, organising and grassroots community work. I was Disability Officer at USyd in 2018, and have worked with ACON, PWDA, FPDN, Accessible Arts, Pride in Protest, Community Legal Centres Australia, and the USyd South East Asia Centre on various projects around disability activism and community building. More recently I have been working within the Disability Justice Network, a national grassroots collective formed in 2021, and Crips for Palestine, a grassroots collective formed in 2025.

I live and write on occupied Dharug (Cammeraygal/Wallumedegal) land. The Dharug peoples have been caring for these lands, waters, and skies since time immemorial. I offer my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander elders past and present, and my solidarity to their ongoing struggle for justice.
