Union Libre by Erica Smith Ramos - Limited Edition 1 of 3 Photograph

Erica Smith Ramos: Each piece of artwork is a unique story that conveys a social discourse of my personal interpretation and feelings for the realm we live in. The works reveal my own memory of how things were, or my view of how things are or could actually be. I take great pleasure in observing and analysing how my world unfolds around me. I deconstruct - and reconstruct for that matter - to give meaning to what our visual perception takes in, ranging from what may seem insignificant to what may be noteworthy or even remarkable. I also often counterpoise thought-provoking graphics that in quick view do not fit with each other. This is a deliberate form to denounce my objection to society or to convey some social humour. I even repeatedly use myself as a model in order to portray my feelings more directly.
