Ricardo Jarama (Lima, 1974) is a Peruvian artist who has been living and working in Athens since 2007. He was trained at the Escuela Nacional Superior Autonoma de Bellas Artes del Peru, where he specialised in sculpture and drawing. In addition, he completed a teacher training programme. After his studies, he became a professor at the Escuela Nacional in Lima and in Jauja, where a branch of the academy is located.

 

In Peru, Jarama mainly made sculptures. He used different types of stone, in combination with metal and wood. The works are predominantly abstract, but some titles, such as Egg, suggest that they sometimes deal with an abstracted reality. His sculptures have been purchased by collectors and museums. He has also donated a number of large sculptures to important cultural institutions in Lima.
