NEW WORK by Ruth Chase

I’m currently immersed in a journey down a mysterious path that is asking to be born. These works are encouraging me to wonder about our majestic night skies, of the cells in our body being a mirror of the celestial body. I have about ten works in progress in the studio, with four completed.

I BELONG HERE Pop Up

2017 ongoing

A pop-up installation where Ruth asks people if they want a hug and if she can take an instant photo of passers-byes, then encouraging them to hang the photo where it could be seen as a reminder of their importance and value to their community. The backdrop is a pop up photo booth intended to be a personal encounter with another human,  changing the roll of the selfie from an isolated “look at me” photo to a visceral experience that involved contact and purpose.
