Ruth Sumner
Ruth was born and raised in Otahuhu and this
has served to infuse my work with the colour and diversity indicative of the
immigrant and Pacific culture that permeated my childhood and teens. She studied painting and printmaking at MIT’s
School of Visual Arts and then went on to complete an MA in Art and Design at
AUT in 2002. For the last 20 years Ruth has lived and practiced my art in Dairy
Flat surrounded by native bush.
Recently Ruth and her husband moved to
Helensville attracted by the vibrant arts culture that the area seems to
nurture.
She work in oils, acrylics and spray paint to
create abstract paintings and prints.
Ruth’s studio is in the Old Arts Centre
behind the Corner Butchery building on Commercial rd beside ARTSTOP. She will
be open for the entire Labour Weekend between 10am to 4pm October 26th-28th
2019.
