Artist Profile: Roberto Schloesser

Roberto Schloesser is an architect and designer whose work explores the intersection of art, pattern, and spatial experience. As Global Head of Design for a Sporting Company’s Corporate Real Estate Branch, he leads the creation of environments that express the brand’s identity through architecture and interior design. Earlier in his career, he contributed to cultural projects at Herzog & de Meuron in Basel, including the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and at Machado & Silvetti in Boston, where he worked on designs for various universities in the United States and abroad.

His independent work has included housing for families displaced by the Volcán de Fuego eruption in Guatemala, a collaboration with a local architect exploring the use of bricks made from the site’s own earth. His inspiration, like his sketches, arises from repetition, material exploration, art, and nature.

Currently Exhibiting in: Brooklyn, NY

Schloesser’s practice is rooted in rhythm and precision. Drawing from architecture and the organic patterns found in nature, he transforms simple gestures into meditations on structure, imperfection, and collective harmony.

Description
Field of Lines is a quiet study of rhythm and imperfection. Using short, parallel ink strokes, Schloesser creates a field of repeated marks that are measured and uneven, deliberate yet human. Each line carries its own flaw, but together they form a pattern that feels complete.

The work is both diagram and meditation, tracing the beauty found in repetition and the inevitability of imperfection in any human attempt at order. It reflects the architectural mindset of precision meeting human touch.
