Ruti Modlin : Saltwater Lullabies
“Saltwater Lullabies” gathers my new body of work, born out of memories of a fluid childhood. What began as a lullaby of waves evolved into a chorus of deeply human witnessed experiences. Raised in port cities across different continents & on merchant ships under the watch of my father, a sea captain, I grew up between horizons & cultures, rocked by the same salt wind.
This exhibition serves as a return voyage. Through paint, I re visit unsteady decks, women on docks on lantern-lit nights, fearful moments & the fevered visions of a child who belonged everywhere & nowhere. The sea taught me that home is motion, memory is tidal, and even the roughest lullabies can carry you safely into morning.
Welcome aboard.
