- In this new video, Sterling Ruby discusses his solo exhibition, "DROWSE MURMURS" at the gallery (27 October-16 December 2023).
“Having all these works at the same time - you are inevitably going to have each thing bleed into one another. It’s a natural occurrence and is special to me because it matches my personality.”
"DROWSE MURMURS" is Sterling Ruby’s most comprehensive exhibition with the gallery to date. Featuring four distinct bodies of new work-drawings, sculptures, paintings and ceramics-it provides a broad overview of the latest developments in his oeuvre. The presentation not only highlights the sweeping nature of his practice but also its material and thematic complexity.
Sterling Ruby (b. 1972, Bitburg, Germany) is known for the multifaceted nature of his practice, which encompasses painting, ceramics, collage, video and photography, textiles, sculpture and installations. Working in a wide range of media, from the traditional to the unconventional, Ruby has created an oeuvre that, while remarkably diverse, is firmly rooted within a complex and coherent artistic strategy. Often drawing upon autobiographical, art historical or sociological sources, the seemingly ‘incomprehensible’ visual range of Ruby’s practice embodies a schizophrenic, ‘post-everything’ state of perpetual fragmentation and synthesis. His practice involves a combination of philosophical enquiry and material investigation, the latter involving the seemingly endless repurposing, combining and recombining of different techniques and media. This too mirrors a shifting condition of constant deconstruction and reconfiguration, and the idea of a non-hierarchical, boundary-less universe.
