Sophie Ramos
“Iām interested in the enclosed space of comfort and safety that also becomes a space of confinement and anxiety. And also a space that is alive both alongside and apart from the human drama that takes place in it.” -Ramos, Juxtapoz.com magazine
‘STUFFed’ Sophie Ramos, The San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art, 2019.
Sophie Ramos’ work is bright and colorful and insanely visually appealing. I love the interaction between objects and paint/pattern. It pulls the installation together in a way I’d love to try. The textural elements clashing with the smooth but vivid backgrounds is stunning.
It feels so organic and lively, full of life. “I have always thought of my sculptures and spaces as characters or imaginary friends, so sound has been a great new addition to my work to activate the objects and bring a static space to life.”- Ramos, https://www.architecturaldigest.com
