    Andean Marble sculpture on stone
  • About the artist
    Ricardo Jarama (born 1974, Lima) is a contemporary Peruvian artist based in Athens whose multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, drawing, and painting. His work is characterized by a distinctive fusion of surrealist sensibilities and material experimentation.

    Jarama’s sculptural practice often begins with abstract forms carved from stone, which gradually evolve into more symbolic and narrative-driven compositions. These works frequently incorporate mixed media, allowing him to juxtapose raw, natural materials with constructed elements. The result is a body of work that moves between the organic and the conceptual, inviting viewers to explore themes of transformation, memory, and the subconscious.

    Alongside his sculpture, Jarama’s drawings and paintings echo similar concerns. His two-dimensional works often feature dreamlike imagery and fluid, ambiguous forms, reinforcing the surrealist undercurrent that runs throughout his practice. Across all mediums, his work reflects an ongoing dialogue between material, form, and meaning, positioning him within a contemporary lineage of artists who bridge abstraction and symbolism.
