Remembering Ruth Waters (1933 - 2022)

"Exploring the human condition – how we relate to ourselves and to others – has been the major focus of my work for more than 50 years, and will no doubt continue to absorb me. The possibilities for visual commentary on existence and relationships are infinite, not only in subjective content but in the range of stylistic interpretation." - Ruth Waters

PMA's fearless Founder, sculptor Ruth Waters, passed away suddenly in June 2022. A woman of many talents, she was gifted in artistry and in life. Ruth was our powerful leader, mentor and friend. Her legacy promoting Bay Area art and artists lives on. She is dearly missed.
