Jose Flores is a self-taught artist based out of Port Washington, New York, whose heart and spirit remain rooted in his place of birth, Guatemala, the heartland of the Maya. His homeland has long and ancient traditions of the Maya which is where he draws his inspiration for his artwork. He pays homage to his ancestors and people by capturing their sacred existence with powerful, dream-like portraits. Through his art, Jose revives his indigenous heritage and identity which has long been in a 500-year battle for survival.
