“Steven Rudin’s hand-cut collages assemble figures from an accumulation of decorative, domestic, and historical fragments. Bodies are constructed from furniture, objects, interiors, and ornament, forming hybrid entities that hover between figure and environment, character and structure. Balancing precision with a sense of play, his compositions unfold through symmetry, layering, and careful alignment. Meaning emerges through recombination, as familiar elements are reorganized into new configurations that generate personality, narrative, and system simultaneously.  His work reflects an ongoing interest in how images and identities are built from parts, where the same materials can be assembled to produce entirely different forms.”
