As an artist, I am deeply committed to using found objects to create assemblage sculptures.
Not only does this help to reduce waste and decrease my own environmental impact, but it also allows me to give new purpose to discarded items.
There is something special about taking a collection of unrelated objects and turning them into a cohesive work of art.
The process of finding and gathering materials, and then combining them to create something new, is incredibly rewarding for me.
I also believe that this type of art can be a powerful tool for raising awareness about environmental issues.
By showcasing the beauty and potential of recycled materials, I hope to encourage others to consider their own consumption habits and the impact they have on the planet.
Ultimately, my passion for building sustainable assemblage sculptures is driven by a desire to create something meaningful while also doing my part to protect the environment.

Biography
Roberta Masciarelli is a visual artist based in Dallas, Texas, USA.
Born in Brazil, she has always been passionate about the arts and started her career as an illustrator after graduating with a degree in Architecture.
However, as she progressed in her career, she became increasingly interested in painting and experimenting with mixed media. Eventually, she discovered her true passion: creating sculptures with found objects.
Inspired by her background in Architecture, Masciarelli constructs structures using repurposed materials such as electronic waste and pencils to create fictional factories, devices, and imaginary situations that draw attention to environmental issues.
She has exhibited her work in galleries and museums around the world, including the Fondazione Opera Campana dei Caduti in Italy, the Vestervig Prison and Legal Historical Museum in Denmark, and the Attleboro Arts Museum in Massachusetts, USA.
In 2018, she held a solo show called Constructio, which focused on factories, devices, and technology, at the Shore Gallery in Abilene, Texas.
In 2019, she participated in a two-person exhibit at the Terminal 136 Art Gallery in San Antonio, Texas.
