- About the Work: Sandra Ramos uses diverse techniques such as printing, engraving and collage with digital photographs that give her work a dream-like imagery. Ramos includes a recurrent character, a little girl, named Alice, a reference to the Lewis Carroll story, Alice in Wonderland that is also a representation of herself as a girl. Alice symbolizes the innocence of childhood dreams, the idea or wish to travel to an unknown place, the end of innocence and the distance between the real character and its surreal context. Her work references Cuban themes of isolation, economy, local currency and the desire to flee the island.
