Letícia Ramos explores the limits of the production and exegesis of analog images through photographic and film works, which she also develops into installations, objects, publications, and performances. Her practice is directed towards the aesthetic intersections between the documental and the fictional, occurring between natural and imaginary landscapes, between the discourses of historical records and those of invented characters, whilst simultaneously exploring the relationship between graphical memory and the nature of the abstract and spectral.
Using rigorous technical and formal procedures as a point of departure, the artist emulates aspects of scientific expeditions in order to guide us along ambiguous and atemporal objects and themes. In this sense, she builds inventive photographic apparatuses – such as cameras, models, and sets – in order to think about the use of these devices as elements of speculation, representation, and production of geographic and poetic terrains.
Letícia Ramos (1976, Santo Antônio da Patrulha) lives and works in São Paulo.
