Traces d’un Passage
An exhibition at «la Genette», 30440 St Roman de Codière, France
Drawings from the Cévennes
These drawings are selected from work undertaken during two months in 2006, while the artist was living in the Cévennes, a mountainous region of the Languedoc-Roussillon province in the south of France.
Ruth was inspired by the wooden doors, narrow steps and tiny windows of the traditional stone buildings unique to this region.
She draws with a metre-long stick dipped in ink.

Touch-Finish
A group exhibition at ANCA, Dickson ACT, including Please do not touch, a drawing in two sections by Ruth Hingston
Please do not touch by Ruth Hingston is a work of poignancy and mystery. I wanted to rescue and examine this apparently lost garment and to reconstruct a story around it. I was left wondering who had owned and abandoned a garment so lovingly crafted.
