Today, on Clay in Color, we chat with Ryan Flores. He creates bountiful sculptures of vegetation in a psychedelic array of glazes. In our interview, he talks about vegetation as an extension of his formal exploration of the figurative, the relationship between beauty and spectacle, and his love for working exclusively with clay and glaze. We also discuss how geography has affected his practice, trying to control results as much as possible, and letting go of preoccupations with repetition. Furthermore, he talks about the shifts he sees young artists making in the field.
