KX2
KX2 is a collaboration combining the strengths of artists and sisters Ruth Avra and Dana Kleinman who currently live in South Florida. They create mathematically inspired sculptures merging metal and painting. From a distance, the work is bold and geometric, yet up close the viewer is engaged by textural hand-sanded metal and multi-layered paintings. By exploring geometry, symmetry, and connection, their work aims to create a moment of pause, inviting the viewer to escape the stresses of the day and find a space to achieve balance. In their most recent work, themes related to environmental issues are presented with the hope to raise awareness of the fragility of our natural ecosystems. Since establishing their artistic collaboration in 2007, KX2’s work has been featured in notable galleries and museums around the world, including the 2008 Beijing Biennale at the National Art Museum of China, where they represented the United States. Their work can be found in numerous private, corporate, and public art collections throughout North America.
