Artist Talk: Chelsea Biggerstaff, Chance Ramirez, Diane Sung, and Ruben Miranda


“Play Fight” showcases the work of the Dougherty’s current Ceramic Visual Artists in Residence, Chelsea Biggerstaff, Chance Ramirez, and Diane Sung. Chelsea Biggerstaff’s work explores the rituals of sobriety and the generational scars of addiction through wood panel sculptures and masks. Inspired by a career in mental health, Chance Ramirez makes hand-built works about pleasure, pain, and joyful resistance. Diane Sung’s work visualizes the distortion of language through fragmented letters and metaphorical landscapes, where figures navigate themes of discovery, code-switching, and wayfinding. Ruben Miranda’s exhibit “Natura”, reflects the intricate relationship between nature, and the human form. His mixed media drawings create a surreal and graphic atmosphere, where bold outlines and organic forms intertwine. Faces, torsos, and elements of flora and fauna blend with natural colors and mechanical shapes, resulting in a unique fusion that captures the essence of Mother Nature with a modern, spontaneous approach.
