Written about me by Anna Maria Lund, january 2007:Sadie Ruben has exhibited her work since 2000 in numerous shows in Denmark. As a tailor she has worked for several years creating theater costumes, but a Peter Greenaway exhibition in 2000 became a turning point that started her out on her artistic career.She creates objects out of textiles and textile fibres that she mixes with other materials, thus obtaining an intimate depth and a sensual character to her objects. Her works are dreamlike and fragile and touch the viewer deeply leaving you with existential and intriguing questions.- Contemporary music is a great inspiration to Ruben, and so is also – often painful - stories from her life. – Her shows have won much acclaim in the Danish art scene due to the originality of her works.
