Robyn Alatorre's paintings and assemblages depict an interpretation of the history of art itself. It is a translation of reality seen through traditional techniques and cultural styles. Distorting reality through the shifting of perceptions, new meaning is derived by age old cultural references. There is something above and beyond sincerity—it is truth defying convention, and a parody of perception

Robyn Alatorre's work has now been shown in a number of galleries in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and throughout the Pacific Northwest. As a resident artist in Berlin, Germany she had her first solo show followed by second in Los Angeles a year later.
