Ruby Silvious: “Reclaimed”
May 15–July 15, 2026
CREATE Offsite
Hudson Amtrak Station
69 S Front St Hudson, NY
“As an upcycle artist, I transform found and everyday materials into unexpected canvases for creative expression. Each piece begins with objects that might otherwise be overlooked or discarded—fragments of the ordinary world that carry their own stories and textures. Through my work, I give these materials new life and meaning, challenging the perception of what art can be. I want viewers to approach my creations with curiosity and an open mind, to look beyond traditional notions of art and see beauty, potential, and narrative in the most unlikely places.” – Ruby Silvious
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Originally from Tacloban City, Philippines, Ruby Silvious has made Coxsackie, New York, her home since 2004. She studied architecture and fine arts at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila before moving to the U.S., where she raised two sons in upstate New York. While balancing family life, she returned to school and earned degrees in Business Administration and Marketing Management.
Ruby Silvious is an internationally acclaimed artist known for transforming everyday materials into captivating works of art. She rose to prominence with 363 Days of Tea, a yearlong project turning used tea bags into miniature paintings. Her innovative use of unconventional canvases—including eggshells, leaves, wine corks, paper bags, and receipts—challenges traditional notions of art.
Silvious is the author of 363 Days of Tea (2016) and Reclaimed Canvas (2019), both chronicling her creative journey. Her work, often inspired by global travels, has been featured in CNN Travel, Vogue Italia, Disney Malaysia, The Guardian, Der Spiegel, and the internationally syndicated Ripley’s Believe It or Not, among others. Her art is exhibited and collected worldwide.
