A bit of artistic order in the artistic wilderness.

Dutch contemporary artist LACE Ruig is preparing her artworks .

Today, I was preparing my artworks for my upcoming exhibitions. I’m increasingly finding my own artistic path and developing my unique style and “handwriting” in my art. The pieces in this photo have all evolved over the past few months.

It’s an incredibly fascinating creative process and brings me much more than just the tangible results.

It brings me stories.


Part of this journey includes carefully curating an art series. Selecting which pieces align and complement each other is an art in itself. Each work contributes to a broader narrative, showcasing how my ideas have developed and intertwined over time. Furthermore, archiving these art series is essential. By documenting and organizing them, I create a visual timeline of my artistic growth. This practice not only preserves my work for future reference but also helps me reflect on my progress and creative shifts. Each archived series becomes a chapter in my evolving story as an artist.
