ABOUT DANIEL'S WORK
Daniel Lind-Ramos is a sculptor and painter transforming everyday objects into sculptural assemblages that embody the social history, religious rituals, and built and natural environments of his Afro–Puerto Rican community. Born and raised in the city of Loíza, the center of Puerto Rico’s rich, African cultural traditions, he constructs his large-scale sculptures out of materials that activate the collective memories of a place and its people.

The island’s tropical vegetation features prominently throughout his works, particularly parts of the palm tree, whose oil and coconuts used to play a major role in sustaining the town. Lind-Ramos juxtaposes these organic materials with manufactured and mass-produced objects—agricultural tools, fishing nets and crab traps, electronics, musical instruments, concrete blocks, and cooking pots—that call to mind Loíza’s festivals, percussive Bomba music, and day-to-day domestic labors. The resulting constructions are alternately joyful and haunting, humorous and ominous in their visual effects. Certain works resemble shrines or altars and incorporate syncretic religious elements drawn from Yoruba and Christian belief systems. Others take totemic form and wield shields or weapons that recall centuries of resistance to the ravages of racism, colonialism, austerity, and natural disasters. A bold, blue FEMA tarp drapes the loosely figurative sculpture Maria-Maria (2019), evoking the protective symbolism of the Virgin Mary, the destructive effects of Hurricane Maria in 2017, and the failure of the U.S. government to provide adequate supplies and support to a devastated population. Vencedor: 1797 (2019) features a horse-riding warrior figure, wrapped in rope and painted burlap, that proudly asserts the role Black Puerto Ricans played in shaping Puerto Rico’s cultural and communal identity. The title refers to the year that Black militias fought valiantly along with Spanish troops and other volunteers to defend the island against attacking British forces.

In addition to his sculptures, Lind-Ramos’s body of work spans painting, drawing, video, and neighborhood-based performance pieces. Lind-Ramos’s distinctive visual language is deeply rooted in a specific locale and yet speaks powerfully of the global connections inherent in Afro-Caribbean and diasporic legacies.

BIOGRAPHY
Daniel Lind-Ramos received a BA (1975) from the University of Puerto Rico and an MA (1980) from New York University. He is currently a senior professor at the University of Puerto Rico, Humacao Campus. His work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions at such venues as the Whitney Museum of American Art, The Drawing Center, the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Puerto Rico, and the Grand Palais (Paris, France).

IN DANIEL'S WORDS
Latino man wearing glasses, red button-down shirt over black tee stands in front of sculpture made of brightly colored fabric sacks and the prow of a small boat. Quote text below reads: My practice is like an exercise of memory. Objects linked to my personal, communal, and regional Afro-Caribbean experience give me the opportunity to connect to that memory and to experiment with the formal and symbolic possibilities of its materiality.

关于丹尼尔的作品
丹尼尔-林德-拉莫斯是一位雕塑家和画家,他将日常物品转化为雕塑组合,体现了他的非洲裔波多黎各社区的社会历史、宗教仪式以及建筑和自然环境。他在波多黎各丰富的非洲文化传统的中心洛伊萨市出生和长大,他用激活一个地方及其人民的集体记忆的材料来建造他的大型雕塑。

岛上的热带植被在他的作品中非常突出,特别是棕榈树的部分,棕榈树的油和椰子曾经在维持城镇的发展中发挥了重要作用。林德-拉莫斯将这些有机材料与制造的和大规模生产的物品--农业工具、渔网和捕蟹器、电子产品、乐器、混凝土块和烹饪锅--并列在一起,让人想起洛伊萨的节日、打击性的邦巴音乐和日常的家庭劳动。由此产生的结构在其视觉效果上交替出现了快乐和困扰、幽默和不祥。某些作品类似于神龛或祭坛,融入了来自约鲁巴和基督教信仰体系的同步宗教元素。其他作品则以图腾的形式,挥舞着盾牌或武器,让人想起几个世纪以来对种族主义、殖民主义、紧缩政策和自然灾害蹂躏的抵抗。一个大胆的、蓝色的联邦紧急事务管理局的篷布垂在松散的具象雕塑Maria-Maria(2019年)上,唤起了圣母玛利亚的保护性象征意义、2017年玛丽亚飓风的破坏性影响,以及美国政府未能向被破坏的人口提供足够的供应和支持。Vencedor: 1797》(2019年)以一个骑马的战士形象为特色,用绳索和彩绘麻布包裹着,自豪地宣称波多黎各黑人在塑造波多黎各的文化和社区身份方面发挥了作用。这个标题指的是这一年,黑人民兵与西班牙军队和其他志愿者一起英勇作战,保卫岛屿不受英国军队的攻击。

除了他的雕塑,Lind-Ramos的作品还包括绘画、素描、录像和基于社区的表演作品。林德-拉莫斯独特的视觉语言深深地扎根于一个特定的地方,但又有力地表达了非洲裔加勒比人和散居者遗产中固有的全球联系。

个人简历
丹尼尔-林德-拉莫斯在波多黎各大学获得学士学位(1975年),在纽约大学获得硕士学位(1980年)。他目前是波多黎各大学胡马考校区的高级教授。他的作品曾在惠特尼美国艺术博物馆、绘画中心、波多黎各当代艺术博物馆和大皇宫(法国巴黎)等场所举办过个展和联展。

用丹尼尔的话说
戴眼镜的拉丁裔男子,在黑色T恤外穿红色纽扣衬衫,站在由色彩鲜艳的布袋和小船的船头组成的雕塑前。下面的引用文字是:。我的实践就像一种记忆的练习。与我的个人、社区和区域性的非洲-加勒比经验相关的物品给了我机会去联系这种记忆,并尝试其物质的形式和象征的可能性。
