Palolo Valdés

Pedro Pablo Valdés Bunster (1956), better known by his stage name Palolo Valdés, is a Chilean sculptor. His sculptures mainly revolve around one central element: stone. He combines this robust material with materials such as bronze and metal, with impressive images as the end result.

The work of Palolo Valdés is reminiscent of the prehistoric era as well as ancient Greece. Popular subjects are horses and bulls, which are depicted in dynamic poses. Despite the raw appearance, Palolo’s images are powerful and subtle. His images radiate vitality and primal power, which is emphasized by the choice of materials.
