Esteban Amaro

Esteban Amaro is a Chilean artist and photographer whose practice spans photography, sculpture, video, installation, and AI, exploring minimalism, universal questions, and our connection to the environment. Rooted in experimentation, contemplation, and ancestral wisdom, his creations redefine concepts of time, space, and immensity, conveying a profound link to the universe and the natural world. Through a blend of natural and supernatural elements, Amaro shifts perception, inviting viewers to explore the unknown and reflect on existence. His series *In The Past Hides The Future* offers a meditative journey into human origins, the flow of time, and our relationship to the unseen, using AI to envision worlds beyond conventional representation. Its monumental, monolithic forms appear suspended between ancient civilisations and distant futures, blurring the boundaries between myth, nature, and science fiction. These mysterious structures evoke the possibility of lost knowledge and forgotten histories, encouraging viewers to reconsider humanity’s place within a vast and interconnected universe.

Amaro’s work has been exhibited internationally in New York, Miami, London, and across Chile, as well as in the Metaverse. His recognitions include being a 2025 Lumen Prize Still Image Award finalist, receiving second place in the International Photography Awards’ Fine Art Minimalism category in 2022, and earning multiple honours from international photography competitions. Represented by Mahara + Co in Miami and ArtStar in New York, he continues to explore the intersection of contemporary photography and emerging technologies. Collectors can discover his work through platforms including OpenSea, Ninfa, Foundation, and OBJKT, entering contemplative worlds where past, present, and future converge.
