Sterling Ruby — Armature Pumpkin Head
Sterling Ruby

Armature Pumpkin Head

2007

Sterling Ruby's *Armature Pumpkin Head* is a dynamic collage on poster that layers fragmented imagery and bold visual elements to create a raw, unsettling composition. Ruby's signature approach merges pop culture references with an aggressive, deconstructed aesthetic, evoking themes of identity and transformation. The pumpkin head motif serves as a grotesque yet playful focal point, reinforcing the work's tension between the familiar and the deeply subversive.
