Ruby Tingle is an award winning multimedia artist and performer represented by No Such Thing Records & PAPER Gallery.
Her Expanded Collage practice reconstructs the readymade and familiar into the fantastical,
presenting unnatural histories, dreamworlds and new myths which blur the lines between science and cryptozoology.
A fascination with water, wetlands habitat, herpetology, the botanical and the curious or hidden in nature
roots her material and conceptual investigation, spanning
performance, installation, sound, music, work on paper, video, writing, sculpture, costume
and interventions with museum collections.
Tingle’s music mixes electronica and natural sound with nu jazz, dance, experimental and avant-garde pop
her ethereal high range vocals combined with her lush and intriguing lyrics form hyper romantic and dreamy love songs- her lagoon fantasy world extending into audio to make ‘music from the swamp’.

Worthy of Danny Elfman comparisons,
the mix of cavernous reverbs and haunting operatic
backgrounds aids Ruby’s excellent storytelling…
