Interiors
1979 to 1983
The Interiors series show a single element
of a room with as much simplicity and detachment as possible, whilst
capturing the mood and character of the entire space. Ruff photographed
each interior scene as he found it, with no additional lighting
or staging. Initially making black and white images he quickly realised
that they seemed very artificial: 'our eyes see colours; reality
presents itself to us in colour'. During the early 1980s many of
his friends and his family refurbished their homes. Ruff felt these
new interiors were less interesting and he stopped producing work
for this series.
