Ruth Waters

Exploring the human condition has been the major focus of my work for more than 40 years, and will no doubt continue to absorb me. The possibilities for visual commentary on existence and relationships are infinite, not only in subjective content but in the range of stylistic interpretation.

I sculpt primarily in the classic subtractive mode, using mallet (or hammer) and chisels on hardwood logs and blocks of marble. Bronzes are cast from molds taken of wood pieces. Editions are limited to 10.

My paintings are subtle, atmospheric, concerned with reflection and refraction. The iridescent and interference pigments are applied to polycarbonate or aluminum sheets with brush, airbrush, and other techniques, and the finished paintings are mounted on glossy black Plexiglas.
