Yupanqui Ramos
Based in Berlin
An artist examining colonial dynamics within environmental contexts across performance, installation, and video.
Yupanqui Ramos is a multidisciplinary artist and costume designer from Mexico, based in Berlin. Working across performance, installation, and video, her practice critically examines colonial dynamics within environmental contexts.
She brings biotechnology, ancestral knowledge, and more-than-human histories into dialogue to explore alternative relationships between human and non-human worlds. Combining traditional craft techniques with contemporary artistic forms, Ramos investigates scientific colonialism, ecological disruption, and the extraction of biological resources.
Her work has recently been presented at Hosek Contemporary, the 36th Bienal de São Paulo, Sophiensæle, SAVVY Contemporary, Humboldt Forum, Thalia Theater, Kampnagel, and Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Ramos shows in Those Who Move Through Matter at Bardo Projektraum, and takes part in the artist talks and guided tours opening and closing the exhibition.
