EXHIBITION INFORMATION

BABY RUTH explores the welcomed quality of pathos through humorous mocking and suggestive thoughts, producing a thick feeling of desperate attention demanded by the pieces. Combining discarded, unwanted objects—inherently pathetic in their abandonment—forces the viewer to acknowledge the character within, garnering sympathy for the work’s mundane, objectified existence.
