Biography

Havilio is a renowned Chilean sculptor in several mediums including wood, stone, bronze, cement and ceramic. Born in Recoleta, Chile in April 1960, she moved at the age of 10 to Buenos Aires, Argentina where in 1980-83 she was taught to sculpt in ceramic under sculptor Ingeborg Ringer. In 1993 she moved to Paris, France to continue her formal-education in sculpting of high-temperature ceramics under sculptor Vivianne Cheveron. In 1995 she moved back to Chile where she attended the Catholic University of Chile ("Universidad Catolica de Chile") to learn other mediums including wood and stone. In parallel, she became an apprentice at "La Obra", a prestigious metal sculpture foundry. There she learned the Lost-wax casting method and was able to produce sculptures in bronze and other metals. In 2001 Ms. Havilio exhibits at the exclusive "Galeria de arte San Francisco" in Chile, thus making a name for herself.

Two years later, in 2003, Laila Havilio is selected by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) in Washington DC to represent Chile at their art gallery. Meanwhile, some other sculptures by the artist were displayed at the Embassy of Chile in Washing DC.
