"I am Just Going To Tell You Exactly What it is I Am Doing"
"I intricately but
anxiously organise information, exploring the relationship between instructional
pieces, text, both moving and still imagery and live action. These inter-dependant works
create a space where everything is linked to everything else and all is part of
an ongoing process."

Live Piece
Emellee Pasov 2008/09 Ongoing live/social networking piece
Surrendering to a three way clause of ownership Robertson's pieces are conducted so that a tug of war carries out between artwork, viewer and artist. These works intricately but anxiously explore the relationship and spaces between instructional pieces, text, moving image, still image objects and performance. A multi self combusting and co dependant series of cues will feed into a representation of the process of art making and viewing from the perspective of the artist and will be handed over to the viewer expectantly and begrudgingly.
"My general working practice involves having lots of ideas about pieces of art which I believe to be interesting. I then carry on with cups of tea, nasty letters from banks, reading, researching, working, doing the washing, going to the shop, smoking cigarettes, watching films. During this time ideas continue to either form or fade out. The ones that last with me the longest and remain interesting to me get some sort of output. Common outputs within my practice have previously included: Documentation of research projects, video, text, installation, performance, live art, photography, social networking and 3D virtual design."
