Andrew Roberts was born in Tijuana, Mexico, in 1995. He is a visual artist working primarily with moving image, immersive installations and narrative multimedia. Recurring to the languages of cosmic horror, video games and science fiction, his work explores issues surrounding warfare technologies, digital bodies and the corporate world. Recent exhibitions include the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (San Diego); Centro Cultural Tijuana (Tijuana); Art Beijing 2019 (Beijing); TATE Modern (London); Cloaca Projects (San Francisco); 13ª Bienal de Artes Mediales (Chile); Bienal de la Imagen en Movimiento (Argentina); SEVENTH Gallery (Melbourne); CCU Tlatelolco, Foto Museo Cuatro Caminos, Centro Cultural Border, LADRÓNgalería and Biquini Wax EPS (Mexico City). In 2019 he was awarded the XXXIX Encuentro Nacional de Arte Joven prize, and in 2018 he received the First Place prize at the 7ª Bienal Internacional de Arte Universitario. He has been the recipient of several grants, including the Patronato de Arte Contemporáneo (2018); PECDA (ICBC, 2016 - 2017); and APROART (Secretaría de Cultura, 2016). He’s the co-director of Deslave, an artist run-space, curatorial team and semi-professional cult for the production and exhibition of contemporary art based in Tijuana. He has curated projects for Human Resources (Los Angeles); Material Art Fair (Mexico City); and SEVENTH Gallery (Melbourne).
