Robertson\u2019s practice spans sculpture, drawing, painting and video, mediums through which they explore the boundaries of the human body and its environment. Robertson works site specifically, often outdoors, with a multi-sensory focus on the body in the landscape. Unity between the material of the natural landscape and the body reclaims a space for LGBTQ+ identity against a history of being deemed \u2018against nature\u2019. &#8211; MAXIMILLIAN WILLIAM gallery<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video (4:56): Cornwall-based queer artist Ro Robertson create a new installation in the galleries at Tate St Ives.
