Federico Flores-Parkman
b. 1998, Mexico City
Based in Miami, FL
Works between Miami, FL and Mexico City, Mexico
My work explores the human experience through abstraction, gestural mark-making, and material experimentation. I work primarily with acrylic and mixed media, occasionally incorporating unconventional materials such as textiles, coffee, and tea.
My process is intuitive and cathartic. Each piece becomes both a visual diary and a conceptual map, shaped by layers, gestures, interruptions, and spontaneous decisions. I’m interested in the paths we take, the transformations we undergo, and the balance, imbalance, and uncertainty that shape our experiences.
Rather than creating works with a predetermined meaning, I leave them intentionally open-ended; the viewer’s interpretation becomes part of the work, shaped by their own experiences, emotions, and associations.
In addition to my art practice, I run my own interior design studio, Artem Design.
