Today is the last day of Fly Over at Kelly-McKenna Gallery.
The show’s heart (and the image that graced its invitation) belongs to Ruth Borum-Loveland. Based in Oklahoma City, Ruth works with earth pigments derived from soil color studies, translating direct engagement with landscape into restrained, elemental abstractions. She collects clay deposits from places she visits, combines them with egg yolk, and creates paint so that each piece is both art and documentation of the land itself.
The resulting artwork Prairie Water I is exactly that: horizon after horizon, in amber, rose, and prairie grey. The American interior, rendered from the ground up.
