Paquita Gallegos Farfán
“Bone of my wire, flesh of my plaster”


May 16 - June 2, 2024

Step into a world where Paquita Gallegos’ minimalist mastery transforms plaster, paper, wood, and metal into captivating sculptural and abstract wonders. Inspired by the likes of Vanessa Beecroft and Frans West, Gallegos reimagines the book of Genesis, offering a fresh, contemplative perspective on religious themes.

Born in the vibrant heart of Lima, Gallegos’ art is a fusion of rich cultural influences here and abroad. Her solo exhibition at Pizza Gallery is not just a showcase; it’s a mesmerizing tale of personal growth and introspection. Gallegos bridges the gap between her Catholic upbringing, Peruvian heritage, and evolving artistic vision, creating an allegorical dance between her own Genesis and the biblical narrative.
