Gab Robert is a Francophone born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario. She completed the Bachelor of Craft and Design at Sheridan College in 2020, where she focused on Glassblowing.

Gab’s work is about exploring the world of microbiology through her lens. As she discovers different types of organisms, she learns about their functions and effects on another. With the help of their appearance, she creates a representation. Glass is the perfect medium for her work since it is used to be able to view the microorganisms, but also these tiny creatures also hold a sense of transparency to them. Her goal is to show the viewer the exciting world that they are constantly interacting with but that is not always seen.
