Lora Robertson

Lora Robertson (b. 1971, Ann Arbor, MI) is a Leica Master Photographer and a filmmaker known for her large scale works in color. As Executive Director of Satellite Collective in New York, she is an advocate for women to stand in their own power and is committed to the retelling of classic story forms from the perspective of female characters, putting their voices forward as flawed heroes. Bringing the discipline of fifteen years of commercial advertising experience into her fine art projects, she uses very little digital manipulation, but instead is devoted to studio lighting, set design and the power of in-camera processes. Lora also believes in taking technical and creative risks which might break these comfortable habits, always from a place of hard work and forward motion.

Recent shows include, “Macro, Micro, Mundi: The Art of World Building”, curated by Liam Otero in 2026 at Rosebud Contemporary, “The American Yes“ at Mriya Gallery in 2025, “Agony In The Scrub Pines” at Mriya Gallery and “Summer Blockbusterz” at Canada Gallery, both in 2024. Her work has appeared at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Open Source Gallery, and 92NY, with public commissions in Michigan at The Grand Rapids Art Museum, Urban Institute of Contemporary Art, Rosa Parks Circle, The Gerald R. Ford Museum, SiTE:LAB, and Fountain Street Church which was awarded recognition from the ACLU.
