Maco Vargas was born and lived in the city of Lima, graduated as a graphic designer. Her work life was closely linked to advertising for more than 20 years until she decided to turn to art, presenting her first exhibition in 2007.
Her training as a designer made her always prefer the aesthetics, images with great mastery of composition, light, color and shape, part of those series decorate now the JW Marriott Miraflores' rooms, Couryard Marriott Lima, among other important hotels in Lima.
In the search of going beyond the domain of the aesthetic, she decided to deepen her knowledge to develop projects with more conceptual subjects, for which she studied and obtained the Latin American Master of Contemporary Photography at the Centro de la Imagen in Lima-Peru.
