About Roberto  Robles »

This exciting new Chilean artist commenced her love affair with the human figure at an early age, graduating from High School with an International Baccalaureate in Art from Sir Isaac Newton College in Peru, at the age of 16, followed by a series of workshops in painting, drawing and sculpture both in Lima and Santiago, as well as studies under the renowned Chilean painter, Eduardo de la Sierra in 1994. 

In 1996, Carolina joined the Universidad Catolica de Chile where she obtained a Diploma in Sculpture in 1999, while at the same time working with artists such as Maria Sonia Noguera, Luz Maria Soriano, Consuelo Aninat, and Claudio Vidal, obtaining practical experience in the areas of human figure in cast iron, art appreciation, engraving and human sculpture.  It was during this period that her deep commitment to sculpture became evident.  She was only 21! 

In 2000, she joined the Margarita Checa Studio, deepening her knowledge of human figure drawing, and also undertook a series of courses at the National School of Fine Arts of Peru for the next four years. 

In 2005, Carolina joined the Vitrofusion Studio workshop of Victor Silva’s Tierra Viva in Lima, where she acquired knowledge and experience in glass sculpture. 

Carolina’s work has been exhibited both in Chile and Peru, with specific showings at the San Isidro Cultural Center and at the Municipality of Lince in Lima, Peru in 2001 and 2003, respectively, and at the Museo de Artes Visuales in Santiago, Chile.  Some of her sculptures can also be seen at the Residence of the Chilean Ambassador in Forbes Park. 

Carolina’s love of art extends not only to her own creations, but also that of classic and contemporary artists, whose works she had lovingly restored for the Municipality of Lima, working with Italian works of art, using clay, resin and plaster.
