DescriptionRalph studied BA Fine Art at Central Saint Martins. Her works often feature fragmented and partially erased forms which serve to depict a passing moment in timeless, unknown places. Feet symbolise presence, stability and strength and this piece particularly, which references TS Eliot's Ash Wednesday, intends to shine a light on women and more largely speaking, human beings, living against the fragile state of humanity.
