Manuel Enciso

Born December 19, 1939, Manuel Enciso loves Peruvian art. He has studied his country's history all his life, visiting every region. "I enjoyed spending time in Andean villages," he recalls. His love for his country and his own creativity led him to develop several kinds of handicrafts, beginning with reverse painted glass and wood in the 1970s. He eventually went into weaving, always seeking to create innovative and well-finished pieces that reflect his Peruvian heritage.

"You can call me 'self taught,'" he says. "My art was the result of my love for my country's history. Through my designs, I want to transmit images and memories of Peru.

"One of my greatest challenges came at the beginning of my career. My family didn't approve. But today they are my greatest admirers."

Enciso's works are a faithful reflection of Peru's ancient civilizations. "I enjoy complementing my designs with modern décor, bringing these traditional icons to new craft lines, as they represent the heart of our nation," he confides.
