Sandra Ramos

Bio

Sandra Ramos is a Cuban American multimedia visual artist who achieved an international reputation in the 90s by expressing her critical relationship to political-social issues related to the traumas of identity and emigration. Ramos earned an MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute; she graduated from the Higher Institute of Art (ISA) and San Alejandro Art Academy in Cuba.

Statement

Through my work I try to express my relation with the political and social contemporary context in my country and worldwide. My work is a reflection about history and actual
life in Cuba, functioning as a daily recovery of an individual and social memory tied to everyday overcoming of economic and social uncertainties. My work reflects the lost
utopian feelings and frustration of the socialism-emancipating ideal in actual society.
