Ruta Reifen works include plaster, paper, copper, epoxy, thread, auto paint, porcelain…and gold. “I am a tactile artist, drawn to earthy substances. The texture and pliability of porcelain and cement and the way they are incorporated into rigid metal structures, is what I find most exciting. When these elements come into contact with the live skin, the different way that the bodys temperature suffuses them is what enables a full expression of their beauty.”
