His interests include identity performance and formation, gender-queerness, and approaches of multiplicity, plurality, and hybridity within the visual arts. Ramsey is Curator of The Polygon Gallery, and holds a Masters of Arts in Comparative Media Arts (2015) from Simon Fraser University. Recent projects include Interior Infinite, an international group exhibition of artists working primarily through self-portraiture, emphasising how costume, make-up, and masquerade reveal rather than conceal identities. Ramsey is currently co-curating a touring exhibition drawn from the Wedge Collection, in conjunction with the forthcoming book As We Rise: Photography from the Black Atlantic, published by Aperture. He is a member of the Black Curators Forum and the Professional Alliance for Curators of Color.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span>Photo By Lauren Zbarsky<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"hcPYQSDa79\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/thepolygon.ca\/exhibition\/interior-infinite\/\">Interior Infinite<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Interior Infinite&#8221; &#8212; The Polygon\" src=\"https:\/\/thepolygon.ca\/exhibition\/interior-infinite\/embed\/#?secret=hcPYQSDa79\" data-secret=\"hcPYQSDa79\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"responsive-video responsive-youtube\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Interior Infinite at the Polygon Gallery\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QIC6ORTn3Mc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Justin Ramsey is a curator living and working on unceded territories of the S\u1e35wx\u0331w\u00fa7mesh, x\u02b7m\u0259\u03b8k\u02b7\u0259y\u0313 \u0259m, and s\u0259l\u0313ilw\u0259ta\u0241\u026c Nations.
