John Flores is a ceramic artist in Yucca Valley, California. He acquired a BFA with a focus in Ceramics at California State University Fullerton in 2019. John uses traditional clay hand building techniques, combined with contemporary glazing applications. At first glance John's sculptures seem otherworldly, but they are seeped in the everyday life of people. Botanical forms morph into obscure but familiar figures, mimicking a connection between terra, flora and fauna. Flores’ work lives in a garden of conversation, sculptures telling stories of personal awakenings and transitions in life. Stories of the many transformations that we undergo and envision for ourselves.
