Ramírez will also discuss some of his recent projects including: his research around Garifuna Cultures in the Central American Caribbean; his editorial ideas around non-western sonic cultures with the curatorial platform Infrasonica, and his work as Adjunct Curator at Tate Modern. Pablo José Ramírez was the sixth recipient of the ICI/CPPC Travel Award for Central America and the Caribbean in 2019, and traveled to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Honduras, Belize, and Guatemala to learn about the history and culture of Garifuna people, the descendants of an Afro-indigenous population from Saint Vincent.
