Profile

I have been a practicing artist for over 20 years and exhibited regionally, nationally and internationally. I have a media background in metal sculpture, environment installations and jewelry. My current practice is solely involved with Video Art and its associated Sound Tracks.

I have a twofold technical approach to video (MPEG 4 & GIF) formats that revolves around the contextual intersection of science and myth. One is based on both empirical research and theoretical proposition and the other on oral tradition and emotive supposition.

See for example:

Roberts, N (Artist). (2010). Von Roberts Vortice. [Sculptural art work]. Hawkes Bay Invitational 2010. (Group Exhibition). Hastings City Art Gallery, Hastings. April 10 – June 27.
