Michelle Roberts Red Blue Up
First Floor Gallery, De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill
22 February – 26 May
Michelle Roberts is a Bexhill-based artist whose paintings and drawings are ambitious in scale, conception and realisation. Her subjects arise from the realm of lived experience, such as a holiday, a visit to the ‘Dinosaur World’ exhibition, or the thrill of an Air Show, whilst other works celebrate events such as the Diamond Jubilee, Remembrance Day, or films that she has seen. While photographs serve as references, they are mere hints and prompts rather than images to be copied.

Roberts’ meticulous drawing style intricately dissects shapes and forms, creating patterns with unwavering precision and control, with compositions that come to life through vivid colour.
Through detailed yet joyful execution, Roberts invites the viewer to explore each of these vibrant universes, drawing our attention to the different ways that we remember.
Roberts’ solo exhibition, Red Blue Up, is programmed in collaboration with Outside In, following the artist winning first prize at Outside In’s national open exhibition, ‘Humanity’, in 2023. Michelle was previously included in the group exhibition, ‘In the Realm of Others’ at the De La Warr Pavilion (2015).
