Victoria Roberts, Assemblage Artist Ep. 36 Interview with Dr. Mark Sublette

Victoria Roberts, Los Angeles native and New Mexico transplant, stops by to discuss her life and art. She has worked professionally in a variety of arts including animation, graphic art, wood and ceramic sculpture, and assemblage. In the early 70’s, Victoria learned the art of hand-painting animation cells and had the opportunity to study art at Sir John Cass College of Art in London, learning the foundations such as life drawing, printmaking, still life drawing and painting. By the 1980’s, Victoria was introduced to and fell in love with the idea of using found objects in art, studying under Assemblage artist Ron Robertson in Santa Barbara. The 90’s found Victoria branching off in another direction—she started a business selling art and antiques, and eventually managing major art shows including the Los Angeles Art Show, American Indian Art Show Marin, The Great Southwestern Antique Show, and Brian Lebel’s Old West Shows. After years of working in the antique and art business, her focus turned to assemblage art. Her current works are infused with her lifelong devotion to art, with the inspiration she gained from her experience in both the art and antique worlds. Victoria Roberts, Los Angeles native and New Mexico transplant, stops by to discuss her life and art from her roots in cell animation to her affinity for breathing new life into old items.
