Exhibition Carlos Gaspar Piagalta in Nice
Carlos Gaspar Piagalta is a new kind of artist. Self-taught, he turned to art and charted his own course. His paintings are created from stitched leatherette. He doesn’t use animal leather, only alternative, more environmentally-friendly materials. Please note that he doesn’t use glue either. All the pieces are sewn together, creating a marquetry.
Carlos Gaspar Piagalta’s technique is unprecedented, and the results match his artistic talent. Indeed, his paintings include nods to Mondrian, Matisse and famous and admired personalities such as Karl Lagerfeld.
But Carlos Gaspar Piagalta doesn’t just create paintings. He also creates magnificent, highly original and well-thought-out handbags.
