Kasey Ramirez: Wake

Exhibition Dates: May 4 - June 22, 2025   

Opening Reception: May 4, 1-3pm

The Ely Center of Contemporary Art is proud to present Wake: Selected Works on Paper by Kasey Ramirez, a solo exhibition of Hartford, CT based artist, Kasey Ramirez in our Flat File Gallery.

Ramirez’s work “explores the tension between stability and impermanence by placing architectural structures in consuming environments. I experienced Superstorm Sandy firsthand, and in the wake of increasingly frequent severe storms, my personal sense of vulnerability connects with the impending tipping point of climate change. In my drawings and prints, buildings become a stand-in for humans, a metaphor for manmade efforts to create shelter that are ultimately vulnerable to environmental extremes.”
