Sterling Ruby  is a multifaceted artist who enjoys pushing the limits. He works across sculpture, textile, installation, ceramics, and painting. Los Angeles gives Ruby endless inspiration as he shifts between mediums. A recent shift, for Ruby, includes launching a ready-to-wear clothing line in 2019.
