ArtToSaveLives Contemporary is proud to present JuanCarlos rLora’s Solo Exhibition of his iconic Flor del Sol series as the inaugural show at their new Miami location after having relocated from Fort Lauderdale in Autumn of 2021.

Flor del Sol is a poetic story of love and hope. It is centered around a concept of a Flower of Love, growing and existing on the Sun. Upon seeing so much destruction on Earth, when it was to reincarnate, the flower asked its Creator to send its seed to be born on the surface of the Sun instead, to forever remain engulfed in flames, as a protest to the ways we’re devouring our home planet…all in hopes to serve as a reminder and incite change in humanity, to become the benevolent beings we are meant to be…

The story of Flor, JuanCarlos’ main character, who is a protagonist, encompasses most of his series and ties them together into one story of positivity and hope. This story spans over a 15 year period, comprising 8 series in paintings and 3 sculpture series. JuanCarlos being a conceptual artist likes to focus on the storytelling aspect of his work; the narrative is as important to him as the visual imagery. Once the viewer starts discovering his storytelling on canvas it is so captivating that one embarks on a rabbit hole journey of abstract surrealism, science and philosophical and theoretical concepts.

So come on by on this journey with us!
