Alongside his photographs, Chuck Ramirez presents a three-dimensional ofrenda, or altar, inspired by his favorite holiday, Día de los Muertos. Built around a vintage stove in memory of his grandmother, the work recreates an altar he first made in 2004. Visitors are invited to write on paper petals and place them on the altar, turning the installation into a living tribute of remembrance and community.
