Andrew Roberts is an artist based in Mexico City. His practice uses gameplay, role-play, and worldbuilding as core methods, resulting in multi-platform 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 United States.
Roberts has held solo exhibitions at major institutions, including the Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo (MUAC) and the SCAD Museum of Art. His work has been featured in the 36th São Paulo Biennial (2025), the Whitney Biennial (2022), the Athens Biennale (2021), the Museo Jumex (2021), and the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (2018). In addition to his studio practice, he co-founded Deslave, an artist-run space in Tijuana, which he helped run from 2017 to 2023.
