Gina Ruggieri New Work
Ruggeri’s paintings depict natures’ objects like rocks, clouds and wood. She achieves a sense of depth and perspective by scaling them to the size of what could be referred as a human experience. Ruggeri creates her oil paintings on large-sized Mylar sheets. These cut-outs are then adhered directly to the wall transforming it into an illusionistic field upon which the images seamlessly float. These painted images create a trompe l'oeil quality of illusion, appearing three-dimensional yet paradoxically flat at the same time. The wood grain and decorative patterns that run through the images enhance and complicate the sense of volumetric form and space. Gina Ruggeri was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1970, obtained a M.F.A in 1996 from Yale School of Art. She works and lives in New York.
