About The Artist
"Cid Roberts epitomizes a true New Yorker who has created a queer narrative in his work. From the appreciation of the city itself, the performing landscape of New York and the beauty of gay culture that drives the New York conversation of the LGBTQ+ community...Cid is someone who has shared his own personal journey with New York through his photography. He has reinvented himself over and over but stayed true to his eye and understanding of the city. He has a true passion for standing by each project and making sure it's a reflection of his true self..in both his life as a New Yorker and a photographer."
-Jason Esposito, Director, RQ Agency. Los Angeles
"Stripping down to my birthday suit often times is accompanied by anxiety when I sign over my trust to a photographer; however, while setting up for this shoot, Cid, a triple threat, quickly lifted my insecurity with friendly conversation, artistic expression and expectations. In a matter of an hour, his clear and concise direction proved to deliver all the angles…capturing the emotions of body movement and stillness. We laughed, I cried, gave praise to life situations old and new, realized and manifested many dreams."
-David Morris, Performer, New York City
Cid Roberts is a New York-based visual artist and photographer originally from Los Angeles. Self-taught, Roberts discovered his passion for photography at six-years old, documenting important life events with youthful intrigue. For twenty-five years, he enjoyed a successful career in Musical Theater and Dance, traveling the world and now focusing his camera on intimate behind-the-scenes details. In 2017, Roberts transitioned to photography as a career, when he documented his walks around New York City- one photo every day for a year- culminating in a book of photos, “I Walk These Streets.”. The project was prompted by a painful breakup with his longtime partner. Photography became therapeutic, encouraging Roberts to capture his external world through the lens of his introspective journey as a gay Latinx man. His work since has been published in Vanity Fair, Musee Magazine, W42ST Magazine, Artist Talk Magazine, New York City Style Guide, and in his published books Projections, and All This Change Is Making Me Wet: Photos of SoHo during public unrest amidst civil and racial injustice. He is an Art Show International award recipient and his New York City exhibitions include shows at Van Der Plas Gallery, La Ventana 533, Superfine Art Fair, Highline Open Studios, West Chelsea Artists Open Studios, Art Club New York, and ArtExpo New York. He currently works and lives in Chelsea, Manhattan with his dog Bastian.
