Member’s Spotlight

Roberta De Caro is an emerging multi-disciplinary artist. Her work ranges from fine art prints, to sculptures and large scale installations. Roberta's practice encompasses also participatory and community art projects. Her work often involves processes such as etching and casting. Glass is often the material of choice for Roberta, who has always been fascinated by its qualities and materiality. Roberta started working in the creative industry as a self taught glass maker in 2011, when she first created her glass art business and glass studio 'Peace of Glass', still an ongoing concern; currently Roberta works mainly on commission and on collaborative projects, as well as providing services such as kiln hiring and workshops. Over the years Roberta's own work evolved from craft into fine art, particularly after graduating in Fine Arts at City & Guilds of London Art School. Her fine art practice and glass studio business exist alongside each other as two separate entities with constant crossovers. Roberta is currently a post-graduate student at City & Guilds of London Art School where she is doing an MA in Art & Material Histories. Her research is centred on glass and the way we engage with this extraordinary material.
