Lynda Roberts

Lynda Roberts is an interdisciplinary practitioner exploring the social dynamics of public space. Drawing on a background in architecture, public art and community radio, Lynda often makes projects in situ, co-creating experiences that playfully explore the world and the spaces between us through sound, jewellery, sculpture and performance; always defying explicit definition.

As a passionate and energetic advocate for experimental and exploratory projects, Lynda is committed to supporting emerging practitioners, tactical action and interdisciplinary research. She continues this work as Senior Advisor of Creative Communities at RMIT University and as Public Assembly, a collaborative arts practice with Ceri Hann.

Lynda lives and works on the unceded traditional lands of the Boon Wurrung and Woi Wurrung peoples. Lands that have long been a place of learning, teaching and creativity.

Wominjeka (Welcome). We acknowledge the Yaluk-ut Weelam as the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet. Yaluk-ut Weelam means ‘people of the river camp’ and is connected with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay, extending from the Werribee River to Mordialloc. The Yaluk-ut Weelam are part of the Boon Wurrung, one of the five major language groups of the greater Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to the land, their ancestors and their elders—past, present and to the future.
