{The
Process}
The
attitudes of Ruby's and Dana's working processes are extremely
different. Dana says that "Nell (Ruby) does things that I
would never do, and I do things that she drives, amplifies. It
becomes part of what the work is about."
Ruby
jumps headlong into the unknown while Dana carefully masticates
over decisions. Utilizing mass-produced domestic products such
as soap, toothbrushes and light switches, Ruby creates installations
of living sculpture. She layers and overlaps, tricks the eye and
leads the viewer into dense spaces of aggressively quirky perspectives.
Dana
photographs and builds clean minimalist vistas of leftover impressions
of loss, providing an emptiness for her viewer to enter. Her art
vibrates with a curious glorification of the insignificant, those
things often immediately forgotten.
These
artists have merged to magnify the sweetness of the mundane, to
caress and study its underside, clarifying and confirming the
importance of supporting the often dis-remembered.
