SICKROOM, 2022

A sound and sculpture-based installation bringing together ideas about healing and protection, property and bodily autonomy, care and control . . . Drawing on personal experiences of navigating and accessing support as a person with chronic illness, Roberts’ installation reveals the magical thinking that reinforces the permeable, indistinct, and ultimately temporary boundaries between chaos and order, between sickness and health, and between what is yours, what is mine, what is shared, and what can never be owned."
