Bony Ramirez’s mixed media painting, La Mamá De Perla (2022), is now on display in the "Tropical Frequencies" exhibition at the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council in New York, USA.
"Tropical Frequencies" featured paintings, sculptures, and installations by Caribbean artists engaging with alternate realms influenced by Caribbean culture, the tropics, and the artists’ African and Indigenous roots. These works tapped into imagined, spiritual, mythical, and ancestral realms, serving as mediums to connect with the Metaphysical. The exhibition explored how creating art and the final pieces acted as portals to the intangible, rooted in Caribbean traditions. The artworks connected back to the islands through repurposed organic and manmade materials like wood, sand, seashells, and clothing.
