Briana Ruais has a passion for everything mystical, fantastic and mysterious. This explains her interest in vampires, whom she so skillfully depicts on the canvas. Briana draws them, but not with paints or pencils, but with thread and a needle. She embroiders them.
Briana Rues is a creator by nature, she loves to create something from something, using any material. The artist not only embroiders, but also draws beautifully and makes sculptures and various installations. They say correctly that a talented person is talented in everything, without exception. In the studio where Briana works, everything is hung and decorated with handmade works of art: embroidered canvases, paintings made on wood, wax sculptures and various knitted ornaments.
The New York artist often refers in her works to myths, fantasy, the connection between the living world and the other world. Using certain symbols and signs, Briana provides clues to viewers, which helps to decipher the message hidden in her works of art.
For Briana Rues, embroidery is a personal reflection on the parts of a whole, the parts that make up a whole story, it is also an exploration of the history of a craft and a way to tell her story. Briana Ruais was born in Southern California and attended New York University, graduating in 2004. She currently works in a Brooklyn studio as an assistant to artists such as Sarah Sze and Tom Sachs.
