Vacillations
paintings by Ruth Lantz


Ruth Lantz approaches painting with the knowledge of unknowing. She creates images without an immediately identifiable context, but an ambiguous and shifting understanding. Through the combination of space photography, slide cultures, and x-ray imagery Lantz enables the viewers to re-discover unknown realities. She applies multiple thing layers of acrylic paint to build up luminosity, creating both pictorial depth and a distant surface. Through this process Lantz creates an image in constant flux, searching for both its beginning and its end.
