Having been born of immigrant parents and grown up between Nicaragua and San Francisco, a strong awareness of inequality and discrimination was established at an early age. Themes such as immigration, discrimination, gentrification and the effects of globalization extend from highly subjective experiences and observations into works that tactically engage others through populist metaphors while maintaining critical perspectives. Ricardo has established a socially investigative creative practice that utilizes whatever media possible to present content in a manner that may generate interaction and discussion by others. http://ambriente.com/ "Physical Traces" is produced by Upgrade! San Francisco, a regular programming series with speakers and socializing designed to foster community around new media arts in the bay area. Support for this subsidized workshop is provided by Southern Exposure's Alternative Exposure Grant Program. Questions about the workshop should be directed to lucky@kildall.com
