UPCOMING EXHIBITION 

KRIS RUHS

DIARY OF A CONFINEMENT, DRAWINGS

MAY 23 - SEP 6, 2020 

In the intimacy of his studio during confinement, Kris Ruhs takes his quarantine into a dynamic new relationship with his artistic process through the discipline of a single drawing a day. Far more than physical bondage, the artist is forced to endure through the limits of one single flat surface, the quarantine he himself is also experiencing physically.
