    Description

    Join us for a brief presentation and collaborative art project with Good Hart Artist in Residence, Genevieve Ramos. 

    Genevieve Ramos  (b. 1990, she/her/ella) is a Chicago-based painter and a disability advocate. Her visual works present in a pop culture aesthetic through vibrant acrylic colors on canvas. Conceptually, she focuses on themes of feminism, disability, empowerment, and political awareness. Ramos wields her art as a tool of activism and resistance, challenging audiences to explore their preconceived notions about what and who women with disabilities should be.


    As an artist, she is inspired by the beauty, positivity, and love of the world, which manifest in works like her portrait series Feminist Crip Paint Power (2022-2023). She is a member of the Pinturas Mexicana’s collective and was a 2021 Artist in Residence with the Disability Culture Activism Labat the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a 2022 fellow with 3Arts/Bodies of Work. Ramos holds degrees in Art and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies from Northeastern Illinois University and is working towards a certificate in Painting from the School of the Art Institute.


    This event is in-person and online via Zoom and Facebook.
