"I think of these cubes as moments I try to hold onto. Each one traces of movment, pressure, and change. The structure gives a sense of order, but the pigment refuses to stay still, spreading and breaking in its own way. For me this reflects everyday life: balancing structure and uncertainty at the same time" (from her Instagram)
Ruth Asawa: "My Curiosity was aroused by the idea of giving structural form to the images in my drawings. These forms come from observing plants, the spiral of a snail, seeing light through insect wings, watching spiders repair their webs in the early morning, and seeing the sun through the droplets of water suspended from the tips of pine needles while watering my garden."
