About

Karin Roberts (f. 1975) is a collage artist, based in Stockholm. With a background in the field of advertising, she reconstructs and samples photos and pictures to create new meanings. She explores how our identity is formed and how our preconceptions can hold us in place. How the outer gaze not only forms us as individuals but also as a collective. With references such as Dadaism and Surrealism she uses the collages to deconstruct and reform the ideas about others. And ourselves.
