Geometric Dog

Geometric Dog — Green and Yellow with Red Circle builds a dog-like silhouette from a green square head, a red circular detail, an arched yellow body, and an upright yellow tail. The colored foam components connect with magnets. Seen from an angle, their depth gives the bright, simple composition a distinct sculptural presence.

The work’s playful appearance recalls an assembled toy or a collectible design object. Through this inviting form, Ruso examines how a dog can be loved as a living companion while also becoming part of a carefully chosen personal image. The sculpture asks viewers to consider the animal behind the appealing shape.
