Ruth Della
Bundjalung Country, southern Gold Coast, Australia.
Ruth's practice considers how the physical world can be interpreted beyond what is immediately visible. Her work explores natural phenomena and environments in parallel with the body, reimagining both as interconnected systems.
Through a research-based and conceptual approach, Ruth makes as a form of enquiry in which observation, experimentation and recomposition generate ways of understanding changing conditions and states of human experience. Working across digital and analogue methods, her practice spans photography, collage and exploratory material processes.
Alongside her artistic practice, Ruth works as an independent public art curator, drawing on her experience in institutional curatorial practice. She regularly collaborates with artists and communities; you can read more about her curatorial work here.
Ruth holds a Bachelor of Applied Science (Interior Architecture) with Honours and a Diploma of Project Management (Arts and Culture), and is currently undertaking the Visual Arts Practice program at Byron School of Art.
