The work of Martha Lucía Ramírez is characterized by her empathy with human emotions; from her feminine condition, she attaches fundamental importance to the expression of feelings, as well as to the great intertwining of solidarity. Her work considers contemporary experiences of mass migration, forced displacement, and solidarity networks, giving these recurring situations an epic dimension. Human chains, groups crossing rivers, carrying their belongings on their backs are associated with geographic drifts, in which entire continents are in motion.

Mass communication sources feed her visual repertoire, as well as photography, with which he is close due to his specialization in video.

In the series ‘Círculo Perfecto’ (Perfect Circle), the tragedy arises from images rescued from family archives. In it, she represents the deep emotion of a mother’s reunion with her children after a kidnapping. The background of these subtle images is to visualize what makes us human; the ability to share joy and sadness, the existence of feelings, and the human possibility of solidarity in a harsh world.

Her work highlights the way in which aesthetics today aims at the creation of networks of meaning, where emotional and cognitive tone accompanies sensory perception; His is a dynamic aesthetic conception that questions, from various positions, what it means to make art today.
