Mariah Robertson (b.1975) is an artist who grew up in Sacramento, California.[1] that is currently living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Her primary medium is photography, but her works are often exhibited as installations and considered sculptural. She has exhibited work internationally including at Saatchi Gallery in London and MoMA PS1 in Long Island City.[2] She works using RA-4 paper in large scale, by manipulating unique mark-making and chemical combinations to create lush, often ethereal abstractions.
