Irvine Fine Arts Center (IFAC) presents a series of  Artist Talks in support of our current exhibitions, Mirror and Terrain. Learn about the inspirations, processes, and artist backgrounds that inspired the works on view in the exhibits. Each talk will be held on Zoom, and advanced registration.

Meet Alkaid Ramirez, an emerging OC-based photographer whose newest mixed-media work in Terrain pays homage to and spotlights his local community. His photographs of swap-meet locals, coupled with material references to domestic spaces, yield work that is simultaneously playful and sentimental.

Alkaid’s work has been exhibited at Redwood Art Association, Eureka, California; Carnegie Plaza at MUZEO, Anaheim, California; and the Latinx Project.
