About her artwork
“Art speaks where words are unable to explain.”
-Mathiole
Rubi loves art, and through it, she can say what she cannot explain. She likes to make art because she can express herself and show her creativity. She focuses on graphic design, photography, mixed-media, and sculpture. The visual language of her artworks is concentrated on social issues, identity, and culture. No matter the medium of her art, she is always hoping the viewer can understand through her artworks what she cannot explain with words.
