Ruth Moro

Until recently Ruth Moro's attention was attracted by the lightness and the seeming fragility of patterns that existed in the sky, woven from transparency and light. Now however it is matter that speaks, announcing itself as a new language, as the shining skin of bronzes or of lacquer work. The seeds of the maple tree showed her new aspects of the minimal alphabet. The expression of the smallest element is magnified; the surface is given volume and relief. The reflecting light brings everything to life.
