His wooden bowls are all made from locally sourced wood and turned on a lathe when the wood is still green. Ideal pieces of wood have a moisture content of about 80%. The bowls are then flashed dried which reduces the moisture content to about 6%. This rapid drying prevents the wood from relaxing which results in warping and cracking because of the uneven tension in the wood. Alain repairs some cracks with Dutchman or butterfly inlays, adding further visual appeal to the surface of the bowls.

Echoing the commercial phrase “farm-to-table,” Nava’s work asks the viewer to consider not only the means that sustain our society, but also, the individuals whose labor said society depends on. José Flores Nava holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Master of Fine Arts from California State University, Fullerton. He is a DACA recipient and is currently pursuing a career as an educator. Places he has exhibited include, Grand Central Art Center, Irvine Fine Arts Center, American Museum of Ceramic Art, Riverside Art Museum, Brea Gallery, ALMA’S RVA, Eutectic Gallery, and Norther Clay Center and Rio Hondo Art Gallery.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist Statement: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs a potter, it’s my job to give meaning to the vessel. Vessels that are used as a substitute to the human body; vessels that resemble outdoor utilitarian objects; or vessels that echo the phrase “farm to table.” As an immigrant, it’s my duty to use my voice to speak about the undocumented laborer. The laborer that grows, picks and cooks your food. The laborer that went from being “low-skilled” to “essential.” The laborer that fits the general consensus that undocumented immigrants do the jobs Americans don’t want to do. The laborer that is talked about using statistics rather than their humanity. The laborer that gets left out from a lot of conversations and a seat at the table. As a maker, I chose to make slip-cast vegetables in order to remove the familiar produce we know. Produce cast with stoneware clay making them strong yet fragile. Produce brightly painted to make their presence known.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"José Flores Nava","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44886630334702,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/8845\/7198\/files\/12_832184a7-be93-4e9e-9006-b48b81568917.jpg?v=1711571010"},{"product_id":"kari-woolsey-mug-1","title":"Kari Woolsey 8 oz latte (Mug 1)","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKari Woolsey is a ceramic artist originally from South Florida.
