Luis Flores is a multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles. He attended University of California, Los Angeles where he received a Bachelor of Arts in Art. His work ranges in medium from sculpture, installation, and video performance to painting and drawing. His work seeks to bring light to topics surrounding gender and masculinity that are often ignored and blindly accepted; those related to unconscious and automatic responses to preconceived expectations or beliefs about situations or tasks. Flores’ work has been shown at TractionArts, White Room, Gallery 111, and Dortort Center for Creativity in the Arts.
