Stone Soup

Stone Soup brings together Eric Ruby’s photographs from the past decade and presents them collaged on fabrics from his personal collection. The results are a maximalist colorful aesthetic that creates playful and unexpected visual harmonies. The photographs offer a glimpse into Ruby’s daily life—things grown in the garden, visits to friends’ houses, a trip to the beach, or a quiet moment. The collected textiles feel almost as if they were plucked straight out of a scene depicted in the photographs. Together, the collages are a true appreciation for the things, places, and people in Ruby’s lived experience.
