About
Sergio Ramirez Lesmes
Born in Bogotá, 1989, Master of Fine Arts from the University Bogotá Jorge Tadeo Lozano, his practice is directed towards photography and illustration. His beginnings in photography are given by the taste of extreme sports and the inspiration that the sea and the ocean itself constantly provide. Their projects are directed to the concept of identity and the experiences that (de)construct throughout life. On the other hand, it analyzes the stereotypes that make up society. His work attempts to highlight problems that have been always present in everyday life, adding a bit of humor and provocation. He recently finished the Master of photography and design at the University School of Design and Engineering of Barcelona (ELISAVA) where he managed to complement his knowledge through the medium. Link the artistic practice with commercial assignments and travel photography.
