ADVISORY ARTIST FEATURE | NOVEMBER–DECEMBER 2025
Anabel Juárez’s ceramic sculptures of plants and flowers combine a selection of both native Californian species and migrant plants that arrived in the region through multiple paths. She considers their stories of origin as well as the plant’s natural characteristics to reflect on notions of migration, adaptation, and survival. These buckets of flowers are inspired by the vendors, who set up temporary mobile shops on street corners across Los Angeles, many of whom are immigrants of Latino heritage. Juárez’s works pay homage to their resilience and the labor they perform and the vibrant, ephemeral spaces they create bringing beauty and life to the urban landscape.
