Daniel Lind-Ramos (born 1953) is an African-Puerto Rican painter and sculptor who lives and works in Puerto Rico.[2][3]

Life

Lind-Ramos was born in 1953 in Loíza, a coastal town in Puerto Rico. He studied painting at the University of Puerto Rico in 1975 and in 1980 he graduated from NYU with a master’s of art degree.[4] In addition to his studio practice, Lind-Ramos also currently teaches in the Humanities Department at the University of Puerto Rico-Humacao.[5]

Artistic practice

Lind-Ramos paints on canvas with oil using traditional and uncommon applications techniques from brushes to spatulas.[2] He also works with recycled or reused materials such as cardboard, wire screen, discarded appliances, car parts, the foliage of coconut palm trees, broken musical instruments and other used items.[2]

He was described as the "breakout star" or highlight of the 2019 Whitney Biennial by multiple reviewers[6][7][8][9], with the New York Times writing that his sculpture Maria Maria exemplified the pieces in the Biennial that "reassert the power of spirituality."[10] Critic Holland Cotter elaborated on the sculpture, explaining how Lind-Ramos "creat[ed] from wood, beads, coconuts and a blue FEMA tarp, a figure that is both the Virgin Mary and personification of the hurricane that devastated the island in 2017 ... the piece looks presidingly majestic."[10][11]
