Official synopsis Publisher
Born in 1975, Sam Flores spent the first twenty years of his life immersed in the stark beauty of the New Mexico desert, surroundings that surely informed and influenced the aesthetic tendencies in his work. Like many teens of the late 80’s and early 90’s, Sam was involved in the street cultures of skateboarding and graffiti writing, and in 1995 he moved to San Francisco seeking both a life as working artist and the Bohemian lifestyle of the Bay Area. His roots in urban expression helped him land freelance gigs doing graphics for Adrenalin skateboards and Civilian clothing, and since then he has gone on to exhibit his work in galleries around the world. “Sam is a great painter, plain and simple. -Mike “Giant” LeSage.
