50 Rules for Making Art

‘50 Rules for Making Art’ is a series of 50 brightly coloured, hand knitted, square panels of text. About this series, Kate shares: “The rules look like knitted post-it-notes or reminders to self. The texts are in my own handwriting. I drew each text onto a knitting grid before stitching each panel. This series was made during the year I turned 50. While knitting, I reflected on the number of years I’ve lived and the many lessons I’ve learned about making art.”

Hereafter

‘Hereafter’ explores humanity's eternal quest for psychological and physical safety, manifested through the interplay of symbolism, superstitions, rituals and belief systems. Drawing upon symbolic representations of life and existence beyond, Roberts explores the profound existential inquiries that have plagued human consciousness throughout history.

Selected work by Fiona Roberts in her solo exhibition 'Hereafter', 2024.
