Hector Surco was born in Cusco, the capital city of the Incas, in 1986. Since he was a child, he has shown his passion for drawing and painting. Like many children growing up in Cusco, his grandmother showed him how to weave and create textile art. It didn’t take too long for Hector to combine his love for drawing and painting with a love for weaving.
Over the years, he’s developed a keen interest in colors and Andean cosmovision expressed in textile art. Having found his true calling, he took the opportunity to go to Lima and work several years with Maximo Laura. Inspired by the color palette of contemporary tapestry art, he found his own language and signature in Andean magic realism.
