About the Artist
Ruby G.
“For me, the best parts of being online is talking to friends, sharing your work, and learning new things! So, I made those the main topics in my drawing. Most of the stuff mentioned in my artwork is something I’ve experienced and can relate to, and everyone should have the chance to feel that too!”

“My artwork is about how the internet can help us to explore the world that surround us. All the wonderful things that we can learn and create with it. Is connected with me because I have a lot of friends that live in other countries and having internet helped me to feel near them even if they aren’t in person. Another way is connected to me this artwork is how the internet have help me to acquire new knowledge. Is incredible all the opportunities that the internet can give to us, like art, maths, news, films, jobs, music, technology, education, nature, history, and medicine. My artwork is also about how the internet can help us to exchange cultures with others and help us understand and share this world with everyone.”
