In 1995, he received a scholarship to study at the San Juan Art League until 1997. He then continued at the University of Puerto Rico where he received a B.A. in Fine Arts in 2002. During his undergraduate tenure, Ramos-Fermin was awarded the university’s Presidential Scholarship to go to study as an exchange student of art and theater at Hunter College C.U.N.Y. (1998-1999). Following his B.A., he was awarded the Huygens Scholarship Program (2006) to complete an M.F.A. in Photography at St. Joost Art and Design Academy in Breda, The Netherlands, (2007). His artistic work has been exhibited internationally in The Netherlands, United States, and Puerto Rico.

Currently, Ramos-Fermín works at the Bronx Museum of Arts as a photography and video mentor in their Teen Council Program.
- About my artwork
- I am a multimedia artist who works with photography, video, installation, performance, graphics and text to creatively investigate migration and globalization. I am interested in articulating conceptual ideas regarding our society into a thought provoking, inspiring, critical, creative language. The concept and the presentation/realization are inherently tied to one another to create provocative work. I describe my practice as a combination between the documentary and the fine arts.
- The centre of the artworld is
- nowhere and everywhere

The issue of immigration is so recurring in the world.
The use of one place for very different activities, the coexistence of the ludric and the spiritual practice in reality. This is life!
In the group, Kika Nicolela is very good, check her videos.
En Cuba hubo un indio llamado Hatuey, cuando los españoles en 1492 invadieron la isla para conquistarla , él se rebeló y fue condenado a morir en la hoguera.
