RUSE was born in June 1980 in the city of Aguascalientes. She began her studies in visual arts at the Arts and Crafts Center in Aguascalientes and took painting and sculpture workshops in Montreal, QC. Later, she enrolled at the University of Guanajuato, where she pursued higher studies in Visual Arts. Two years later, she moved to Guadalajara and completed her studies in arts and architecture, supplemented by specialized studies in graphic work restoration on paper and illustration at the San Carlos Academy and the Institute of Philological Research of UNAM respectively.
She has exhibited individually and collectively in public and private cultural spaces in Mexico, as well as in Montreal, Canada, and Rouen, France. Notable venues include the Museum of Interactive Economics (MIDE), the Polyforum Cultural Siqueiros, the Raúl Anguiano Museum, and the Benjamin Manzo Gallery of the Cultural Institute of Aguascalientes.
With a figurative style blending metamorphosis and psychedelia, RUSE's work employs a language where birds and the human figure interact on canvas to narrate everyday stories in a unique manner. Primarily using water and pencil techniques, her themes traverse political, personal, everyday, and mythological realms, characterized by stylized lines and intense colors forming a subversive, introspective, dissenting, and non-romantic language.
In addition to her visual art, since 2019 she has been a collaborator for Article 19 in Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean, illustrating pieces accompanying the organization's reports.
