BIO
Micah Ramirez (they/them) is a Denver based interdisciplinary Chicana artist, advocate, and community member. They use their work to bring attention to intersectional issues such as sexual and gender violence, QTPOC rights, Reproductive Justice, anti colonialism, and more. Their activist work in their community greatly informs their artistic practice and see them as two sides of the same coin.
They explore themes that are both personal and spiritual as well as political such as: generational trauma, ancestral wisdom and resilience, bodily autonomy, and breaking cycles of abuse.
Notable exhibitions and projects include their solo exhibition at MSU Denver An Offering to the Cycle Breakers and their mural A Better Future is Possible for the SpaceTech Scholars program (created in partnership with Morgan DeVillier). Their work has been shown internationally in a group exhibition at Munich Jewelry Week 2024. They have shown frequently with Chicano Humanities and Arts Council, and co-curated CHAC’s Chicano Legacy show with Tania Maldonado in August 2023.
