Emilio Vargas

“With every piece I create, I delve deeper into the elemental forces of nature. My art captures the essence of the earth’s raw textures and subtle forms, allowing me to explore the powerful connection between humanity and the natural world.”

Artistic Style: Minimalism, Wabi-Sabi, Plaster Texture


Personal Background:

Vargas was born and raised in a typical family in Lima, Peru. He developed a love for art through formal academic training at a local art institution, where he gained a solid foundation in traditional techniques.

Artistic Journey:

After his studies, Vargas began exploring minimalist art and became fascinated with plaster as a medium. He enjoys the raw, textured feel it offers, which aligns perfectly with his minimalist philosophy. His work now reflects a balance between modern minimalism and the timeless quality of natural materials.

Sources of Inspiration:

Vargas finds inspiration in the clean, modern lines of minimalist architecture and the organic beauty of natural materials. He is particularly drawn to the simplicity and purity of plaster, which he uses to create textured, tactile surfaces. Influenced by the interplay of light and shadow, Vargas is also inspired by the serene landscapes of Peru and the raw beauty found in natural imperfections. These elements allow him to capture a sense of calm and balance in each of his works.
