Andrew Roberts

In his practice, Andrew Roberts (b. 1995, Tijuana, Mexico; lives and works in Mexico City) uses gameplay, roleplay, and world-building as core methods, resulting in multiplatform narratives that take the form of immersive installations, digital animations, sculptures, and poetry. Roberts mines the history of monsters and the physical dimension of horror to focus his lens on real-world structures: specifically, economic systems rooted in death, the weaponization of cultural artifacts, the gamification of the arms industry, and the haunting, tense relationship between Mexico and the U.S. He has held major institutional solo exhibitions at the SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah, Ga. (2025), and Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo (MUAC), Mexico City (2025). His work has been featured in the 36th Bienal de São Paulo (2025), the Whitney Biennial (2022), and the Athens Biennale (2021), as well as at the Museo Jumex, Mexico City (2021), and the Museum of Contemporary Arts San Diego (2018).
