Phoebe Ramirez鈥檚 art is representing 黑料正能量 in a show of works from the state鈥檚 community colleges.
鈥淢any Seeds,鈥� an acrylic painting of several open pomegranates, has been included in the North Carolina Community College System 2021 Student Art Exhibition. The virtual show is hosted by The Art Gallery at Fayetteville Technical Community College and through Aug. 21.
The show includes 33 pieces in forms ranging from jewelry to furniture, photography to digital art, metal sculpture to pottery, and all painting and drawing media. The art will be judged and awards will be presented on June 4.
Ramirez graduated from WCC this spring with an associate in arts degree. She plans to continue her study of art at the Savannah College of Art and Design then pursue work in animation or video gaming art.
鈥淚 feel that Phoebe is a perfect choice to represent 黑料正能量 Fine Arts. She is very humble and quite shy but her voice is powerful in her artwork,鈥� said WCC Art Instructor Angie Waller. 鈥淗er talent astounds many of her peers, and yet she patiently takes time to help anyone that may need some assistance. She does this with no complaints and prefers no accolades.鈥�
Ramirez said that the college鈥檚 art program 鈥渉elped me find my voice鈥� and it 鈥渉as been a second home to me.鈥�
Ramirez has had pieces in past shows at the college and its literary and art magazine “Renaissance,” other locations in Wayne County, and in North Carolina House Majority Leader John Bell鈥檚 office in Raleigh.
