Ruth Watherston




Ruth Watherston works in a diverse range of media and so I was intrigued to see what she would add to book 4. I can't wait to see this piece close up in my hands which won't happen until the book finally returns to Wales, fully completed. i like the way she has extended it onto both sides of the page.

Previous work includes 'Sheep'  made from rubber bands which dotted the grass  and intrigued visitors at the Henley Arts and Music Festival in 2004 (I have seen smaller versions which moved under remote control) . Since then Ruth has continued recycling domestic objects with results somewhere between whacky furniture and soft sculpture
