Roberta Queiroga is an award nominated contemporary visual artist from Brazil living in Aotearoa New Zealand since 2001. As a highly skilled and successful architect, she is interested in the relationship between the artwork, the viewer and the space. Her art practice is also heavily informed by the time she spent living in Portugal and Japan. The ethos and style of these unique places and cultures, together with her spatial and conceptual way of thinking, continue to shape her identity, serving as a consistent source of inspiration and influence.

She works in a symbiosis with the canvas allowing for her emotion to spontaneously flow with minimum interference when creating. It is this that gives the work its compositional lightness and meditative quality.
