Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa: Performing Artist in New York

About Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa

Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa is an artist whose work moves between drawing, printmaking, sculpture, video, and performance, often returning to the social aftershocks of Guatemala’s civil war. His installations treat objects and costumes as witnesses, pairing handmade surfaces with staged actions that unfold at a measured pace. In New York City, his work appears at MoMA in the exhibition *Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa: Lugar de Consuelo (Place of Solace)*. His approach favors plainspoken imagery over spectacle, letting political history and personal memory share the same frame.
