Type of work
Painting, figurative


Ruth Waller held her first show at Watters Gallery in 1981. Her work has socio-economic and political insights and has been concerned with land exploitation and its effect on indigenous people and animals. Some of her work included pawscapes based on the paws of threatened or extinct species. In recent years her paintings have reflected her interest in the narrative picture spaces of Italian painting of the late medieval and Early Renaissance periods.
