Headless Dick / Deth Till
Sterling Ruby's *Headless Dick / Deth Till* is a striking assemblage constructed from Formica, wood, and spray paint, combining industrial materials with raw, gestural mark-making. The work reflects Ruby's signature fusion of craft traditions and subcultural aesthetics, evoking themes of violence, consumerism, and social unrest. Bold sprayed surfaces disrupt the clean, manufactured quality of the Formica, creating a tension between the domestic and the visceral.
