Below are a few artists we'd like to call your attention to this week. |
 Celeste Flores |
 Figurative |
Celeste Flores always considered herself an artist. The attempt to recreate the world around her through drawings occupied much of her childhood. Not satisfied with simple marks on a page, she would use any material necessary to satisfy her need to create; yet it wasn’t until her first semester in college that she discovered sculpture. Unhappy that she would have to deflect attention from her drawing classes, Celeste enrolled in a beginning sculpture class required by The Academy of Art University in San Francisco. It was a turning point in her life. Sculpture was the solution to her dissatisfaction. Through the use of three dimensions and a variety mediums she found a way to truly express her ideas. Her work deals with concepts of feminism through the lens of western history and literature. |
