Esther Ruiz

Inspired by space operas, pop culture, geometry and the setting sun, Esther Ruiz creates objects that operate simultaneously as miniature landscapes from a distant future and actual size sculptures informed by the family of Minimalism. The cylinder, the semicircle, the triangle, and other Euclidean forms are combined into colorful and expressive freestanding sculpture. She tops cast cement columns with Plexiglas triangles, neon arches and fractured geodes in a way that leaves viewers thinking of Dan Flavin, Pink Floyd 
and the stark beauty of the desert. 

Esther Ruiz has shown nationally and internationally at various galleries including New Release Gallery, Planthouse Gallery, Brooklyn Wayfarers, Platform Baltimore, Vox Populi, Field Projects, Fridman Gallery, Regina Rex, and The American Center for Physics.
