Geometric Dog — Blue and Yellow with Orange Circle

Geometric Dog — Blue and Yellow with Orange Circle transforms a dog-like figure into a compact arrangement of color and shape. An orange circle sits within the square blue head, while the yellow body forms an open arch beneath a raised triangular tail. The colored foam elements connect with magnets, making the sculpture’s assembled construction part of its character.

The work’s cheerful appearance recalls a toy or a collectible design object. Through that attraction, Ruso explores how a living companion can also become an image chosen to express taste and identity. The sculpture invites viewers to enjoy its playful form while considering the difference between an animal and the object we make of its image.
