SUMMARY:Architecture of Connection
DESCRIPTION:Architecture of Connection \nAn exhibition by Ruth Hickman \nPaintings explore tension and harmony between the organic and the constructed. The exhibition brings together two distinct visual languages – fluid acrylic gestures and the disciplined precision of wrapped thread – to examine how opposing forces can coexist within a single surface. The interplay between paint and thread is crucial – stitched lines act as both connectors and boundaries – they tether the abstract forms while simultaneously implying tension and fragility. The surface shifts between control and chance\, giving the sense that the artist is mapping something intangible: perhaps emotion\, time\, or loss. \nThis series examine linkage\, flow\, and resonance – how elements communicate across space. The stitched lines evolve from boundaries into bridges\, threads that weave one form into another rather than dividing them\, moving towards an expression of the invisible architecture of relationships\, energy\, or shared memory. \nRuth aims to provide a dynamic and immersive environment that encourages viewers to experience art in a more engaging and spatially integrated way. A series of canvases\, stretched and unstretched\, vary in size from very small to large scale. \n\nRuth Hickman’s career as an artist and art educator began during her time at London’s Kensington & Chelsea College\, followed by completing a BMA hons at Wintec\, Hamilton. In addition to making art\, Ruth is the Volunteer Art Gallery Coordinator at Raglan Arts Centre and a member of the Creative Communities Scheme representative for Raglan Arts Council. \nRecent paintings explore the tension between the organic and constructed\, examining how opposing forces can coexist within a single surface. This reflects dualities that shape both the natural world and our inner lives. \nRuth has exhibited her work in the Waikato\, Auckland and Melbourne. \n\nPlease join us at the opening event for Architecture of Connection on Saturday 19th September\, 12-2pm. \nThe Nancy Caiger Gallery is open 11am-2pm from Wednesday to Saturday. If you’d like to visit this exhibition outside of these opening hours\, please email kiaora@themeteor.co.nz \n  \n
