Dicxon Vergaray

Born n Luya Province in the District of Maria in Amazonas of Peru. A typical “Warrior of the Clouds” (another name for the ancient Chachapoya culture of the region); Dicxon’s feet are always climbing up the impossible hills of life and his head is constantly bringing down visions from the skies. Creativity is an inner urge for him and choosing art as a profession is also his response to this need.  

He moved to U.S. when he was 18—old enough to absorb the cultural shock and young enough to assimilate quickly. Being gay and from a Catholic background has been another struggle reflected in many of Dicxon’s paintings.
