QUIET REVOLUTION :: the platform for art & research and the studio of Vanessa Ramos-Velasquez.
ARTIST STATEMENT :: my practice is about transformation... evoking my indigenous ancestry, recomposing the fragmented body, learning from multi-species kinship via sensory autoethnography in the Amazonian region. It also involves decolonial and anti-colonial artivism conjugating micro and macro narratives.
My creative process leverages Artistic Research in the fields of Cultural History & Theory, Media Philosophy and Environment & Society in a convergence of social interactive rituals, engaging the multisensorial capabilities of the human experience. Situated works bring traditional practices and philosophies into the center by challenging obsolete dominant colonial thinking in the Capitalocene.
