Dhiradj Ramsamoedj, 'Seduction', oil paint on canvas, 113.5x80cm, 2015
In 'Ever Evolving El Dorado' and 'Seduction' Dhiradj Ramsamoedj refers to the expression 'the sky is the limit'. His use of the sky in both paintings, refers to a political conversation in the context of Suriname: one with colorful fabrics to indicate the infinite possibilities of our cultural diversity and the other as ‘where the sky ends’. In the first, Ramsamoedj depicts a horse stepping into a pool of petroleum. While thus creating a temporary upward movement, a strong symbolism regarding our recent oil discoveries, this noble animal has everyone’s attention. At the center in the second, is the nakedness of an unknown female gazing at an elephant.
The horse represents the misguided illusion of the country’s inexhaustible wealth, to be exploited at all costs … The interconnectedness of these paintings lies in their symbolic criticism of the prevailing social and political narratives and events that compromise the future of Suriname. Ramsamoedj dreams of being able to open the eyes of the horse and elephant to the real wealth of the country, embodied in its alakondre identity, which should be the real impetus and foundation from which to jointly labor towards sustainable growth.

All I can really say is that this show was bigger and better than I had ever hoped for. Evolve took on a life of its own and so many of the artists shared their own powerful stories of overcoming whatever life has tossed along their path.
Over 20 photographers, ceramicists and artists were part of this event. Gay, straight, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgender, Black Latino, White, Armenian, poor, broke, rich, wealthy, HIV positive, HIV negative and even two homeless individuals were all artists in this show. The was a direct representation of what Los Angeles looks like and together we showed why we are the City of Angels
About 400 attended the opening at Art Share-LA in Downtown Los Angeles. The event was a complete success with people coming from as far north as Sacramento as far south as San Diego. New York, Denver and even two folks from Atlanta made the trek to the Evolve opening. I was completely blown away.
Big thanks to all the artists for their beautiful pieces, my family, friends and supporters for continuing to embrace my work through Project KengiKat and Do Something Saturday and to everyone who donated and attended the event I want to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

The bride herself has evolved immensely over the last century. Women today know what they want, and how to get it. These days, rather than going 'traditional', some ladies may prefer their clothing to make a statement. They want clothes that reflect who they are, their unique charm and personality. They are also practical, utilizing both their resources and their time more effectively. To this end, increasingly more women are opting to design their own wedding gowns. Couture Wedding Dresses San Francisco will work with your own creativity and vision to create the perfect gown.
