As an observer of the living world, Russ is interested in the evolution of matter and state through time.
In this "living" in the broadest sense (from the atom to the cosmic scale) the human takes a central place and questions the relationship we have with our environment and by extension with ourselves.
His drawings and paintings combine several scales of observation, one world enclosing another and so on, indefinitely.
The result is dreamlike compositions, sometimes surreal, where plant elements, symbols of the cycles of life, anchor us in a more perceptible reality.
From his ontological preoccupations and other metaphysical ramblings Russ has produced numerous murals.
In a more intimate context, his studio productions are also visible in the gallery.
