Benjamin Ruhe
"Ben Ruhe's paintings strike a sweet spot between harsh reality and storybook fantasy. He seems to journey to another dimension returning with these eerie yet friendly images, snapshots from the ghettos of a cartoon realm that has granted him a visa. Happy yet wise creatures set in a heavenly palette that register a venn diagram overlapping funny and cute with profound and spiritual."
-Nemo Librizzi
