About

PILAR OLAVERRI

I'm a sculptor and designer currently based in New York City. My diverse cultural background has shaped my artistic journey, stemming from a Puerto Rican father and Spanish mother. My hybrid heritage is central to the dichotomies explored in my work.

From early exposure to the San Juan Arts League as a child to studies in Parsons School Of Design affiliated Altos de Chavón and at the Fashion Institute of Madrid initially steered my path, but I later redirected my focus to Fine Arts. Returning to San Juan, I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree specializing in sculpture from the School of Plastic Arts, establishing my studio in NYC where I crafted both sculpture and jewelry.
