Deborah Ravetz is a practising artist living in Stourbridge. Besides painting she works with the ideas of Joseph Beuys, who coined the term 'Social Sculpture'. This term was an attempt to widen the remit of art to include the human biography and its place within a community as art. Her work, 'The Search for the Deep Self,' is a project that uses photographs and narrative to uncover the moments in many individuals' lives when they were able to connect with their most profound aspirations. This body of work grew out of the community of Stourbridge in which she was working both as an artist and a collaborator with other artists, making work in the community for the community.
"There's never any knowing which of our actions, which of our idlenesses won't have things hanging on it forever". (E. M. Forster)
