Sofie Ramos: Space To Breathe Opening Reception
Fort Mason Center For Arts & Culture
Aug 10th @ 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture (FMCAC) invites the public to an opening reception for Space To Breathe, a new commission by local multimedia artist Sofie Ramos. In her new commission for FMCAC, Sofie Ramos inhabits three entry sites to the FMCAC campus: the 1926 Guardhouse, the power transformer, and the driveway separating the two.
Ramos’ fantastical installations suggest a painting expanding into space and often engulfing the viewers. Her playful use of vibrant color and exaggerated shape transforms everyday objects and interiors into their extroverted and dream-like cousins.
The reception features two activations of Ramos’ work. Starting at 7:00 p.m., see Moving In, a collaborative, inaugural performance choreographed and performed by Rachael Cleveland and Ensemble. Moving In performers include Armineh Astanbous, Pauline Canteneur, Rachael Cleveland, Emma Lanier, and Niklas Lollo. Close out the hour with Fumigator by Lacey Johnson and Dorothy Wang. Both pieces use the Guardhouse as a focal point.
Join us to celebrate the opening of Ramos’ installation, and enjoy the offerings of Off the Grid, Radhaus, the Interval, and more.
