Limited edition pieces are produced in small runs and hand-finished by Ruben himself. Each carries an original touch — no two reproductions are identical.
These editions honor the spirit of the original while making Ruben’s work more accessible. Each piece is individually finished by hand, giving every edition its own character, texture, and presence. Though part of a limited run, each one still carries Ruben’s direct touch and the living influence of Hawaiʻi.

Afloat — Limited Edition Metal Print
In Afloat, the feminine figure gives herself completely to the ocean — weightless, unhurried, and held within the surrounding water.
Rather than emerging or transforming, she seems to remain suspended in a moment of pure release. The body drifts without resistance, allowing the ocean to become both environment and support. That sense of surrender gives Afloat its quiet power — less about movement toward somewhere else, and more about trusting the present moment, a pause between effort and becoming.
Part of Ruben's Stratalux series, meaning "layers of light," Afloat uses luminosity as part of its emotional atmosphere — light diffused through water, soft and enveloping.
