ART NEWS – “I remember my first experience with an ambulance. I was so little that I thought I was in the belly of a dragon,” the artist Daniel Lind-Ramos recalled last week during the installation of his hotly anticipated MoMA PS1 survey, which opens today. “My mother asked me later in life, ‘How do you remember that?’ Maybe because I was so impressed.” His memory of the ambulance forms the crux of a pivotal sculpture that debuts as part of the exhibition. In Ambulancia (2020), from 2022–23, a skeletal mattress spring, emergency siren light, loudspeaker, metal chairs, and wheelbarrow form a hauntingly zoomorphic figure in Lind-Ramos’s signature style.
