Lizette Hernández was born in Los Angeles and received a B.A. in Fine Art from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA).  Primarily working in sculpture, through a collaboration with clay, she is led by listening to the land and investigates expressions of inheritance, regeneration, and devotional aesthetics. Hernández questions the concept of “the sacred,” and explores the ideology of deep ecology by highlighting the intersections of floral anatomies, religious iconography and ritual practices of remembrance. Her practice welcomes experimentation through various firing processes such as raku, pit firing, and glass fusing.
