Welcome to LuRuArt.com

I am settling into my new studio space and my new pace of life. I am still working on the paintings but I have started a new sculptural body of work. I am experimenting with an entirely new way of working. I have been inspired by cast off materials that are small, light and free, Styrofoam egg cartons, meat and produce trays. Although initially attracted to their formal qualities, the egg cartons are loaded with associations and the content part is quickly emerging. My infatuation with the cartons is growing, as are the chains of crystalline vertebrate. Each time I sit down to cut and sew them, I see new configurations. I am also working with black Styrofoam meat trays which have a very different aesthetic but are equally intriguing.
