Biography
Ramos studied visual arts and teaching at the "Carlos Morel School of Fine Arts" (EMBA) in Quilmes and at National University of La Plata (UNLP), as well as engraving and printed arts. She currently works as a teacher in several educational institutions and as coordinator of the Postgraduate Program in Media and Technology for the Painting Production at the National University of the Arts in Buenos Aires (former Instituto Universitario Nacional del Arte).
Since 2000, Ramos has participated in several events related to different disciplines such as performance art, mail art and ceramics. Her works were shown in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Canada, USA, Italy and Albania.
Ramos explains most of her roots, influences and role as a self managed artist in the Latin American context, in an online paper called "Arte de Acción. Agitación Cultural desde el Río de la Plata desde una perspectiva de la autogestión" (Action Art. Cultural Agitation in Rio de la Plata from a perspective of self-management) (In Spanish).
Zonadeartenacción International Performance Art Festival
Gabriela Alonso, an Argentine artist, created Zonadearte, an art gallery which wanted to show the most innovative artistic expressions located in Quilmes, south of Buenos Aires. Nelda joined Gabriela in 2006 and they organized together the festival of action art and urban interventions. Zonadeartenacción, active until 2010, became a multi-disciplinary event that hosts exhibitions including the areas of design, clothing, object, mail art, installation art, urban interventions, visual and sonorous poetry. In spite of that, talented international and national artists participated in this festival, such as VestAndPage, Sinead O'Donnell, Irene Loughlin, and many others.
