About

Rudy's work is fundamentally about bringing people together. He incorporates diverse cultural spaces, practices, and temporalities to challenge and expand the social dimension of art, inviting people from all walks of life to inhabit the special and personal spaces that he constructs and to communally engage in shared rituals and actions. Through his real-time experiences, Rudy often addresses broader social and political concerns, such as protest movements, and colonial past. He has also come to incorporate into his art and installations a wide variety of media, including painting, printmaking, video, photography, mixed-media assemblage, and music.
