Roberta Ruocco is a contemporary fine art photographer located in New York City. She specializes in large scale photography for residential, commercial, and commissioned works.
A first-generation Italian-American, her parents immigrated to America from the island of Capri and she grew up in Palm Beach, Florida. Water is her muse. Her work is highly influenced by the ocean — she uses light, time, and movement to capture vibrancy and depth. She studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York, and her images explore the endless horizon, filled with reflection and discovery, an esoteric power that emanates with a sense of hope.
From Capri to Palm Beach, Anguilla to New York, each image is an echo of where she's been — and a quiet invitation to pause, feel, and remember.
Her work has been featured in Il Centro Caprense Ignazio Cerio, The Affordable Art Fair NYC, Red Dot Miami, Spectrum Miami, Aqua Art Miami, The Palm Beach Show, and Hamptons Art Market, among others.
