Daniel Ramos
Daniel Ramos creates 3-dimensional sculptures, large-scale collages, and mixed media installations. Early on in his career, Ramos decided that the people in his life–family, friends, co-workers–would be the subjects of his work. He uses photography as a vehicle to amplify their presence in the world, and has recently began moving beyond the single image convention of picture making.
Daniel Ramos has exhibited work at Artpace San Antonio and Center for Photography at Woodstock, among others.

Artist
Lauren Kelley
Lauren Kelley is a storyteller employing a wry wit when surveying notions of emotional excess. Her approach to animation combines clay-mation with a collection of tan, plastic toys to stylistically evoke the children’s television programs of the artist’s youth. Her jittery, low-tech ideas take place amongst Technicolor dioramas; a plush backdrop in contrast to the flaccid storylines of a discontented cast of innocent characters.
Lauren Kelley has exhibited work at Centre Pompidou, Paris; Women and Their Work, Austin; and The Kitchen, New York, among others
