Bernadette Esperanza Torres
“As a storyteller I communicate with my hands, translating stories into clay. My thrown and hand built sculptures are autobiographical narratives that include Java Sparrow finch birds as well as human figures. As a daughter of a florist, flowers are intrinsic to my sculptures. They create a dialog internal to my work that relates to the ways that flowers are always present and dying at monumental life changing ceremonies.”
Bernadette Esperanza Torres lives and works in Kansas City, Mo., where she teaches ceramics and drawing at the Metropolitan Community College-Penn Valley and directs the Carter Art Center Gallery. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Kansas City Art Institute and her Master of Fine Arts from the University of Miami.

In Wisconsin, her paintings have been shown, both in solo and in group exhibitions, in Milwaukee, Appleton, Green Bay, Spring Green, and in numerous venues around Madison.
In 1998 she discovered the pleasure and power of expressing herself with clay, making sculptures which are informed both by her African roots, and by the work of the pre-Colombian people of Haiti, the Arawaks. In 2000, she earned an MFA in Ceramics at the UW Madison. She has since been working in both mediums, using the female image as a vehicle for conveying her sense of uprootedness, and her spirituality.
