“Painting outside the canvas implies thinking beyond a pictorial logic. I seek strategic places where images resonate more deeply, where painting stops being an object. Painting is usually something that strives to endure; my pieces, on the contrary, embrace their ephemeral nature. They become part of the landscape and endure what it endures: they disappear, move with the air, and can be walked through, generating a dialogue between symbols and contexts.”

Francisco Flores (2002, Mexico) is a painter. His practice explores the expansion of painting into the territory through iconographies. He understands painting as a form of thought and action that unfolds between gesture, landscape, and culture. Trained at the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Printmaking (Mexico), he is currently studying at the Zürcher Hochschule der Künste in Switzerland with the support of the Global South Scholarship. He has exhibited in Mexico and Switzerland.
