Adrián Villar Rojas (b. 1980, Argentina) is an Argentine artist known for his monumental sculptures and installation art that challenge conventional notions of time, decay, and ecological transformation. His works often involve large-scale, ephemeral sculptures made from materials like clay, cement, and organic matter, which are designed to deteriorate over time, highlighting the impermanence of human creations. Villar Rojas' art is deeply influenced by themes of extinction, the Anthropocene, and the fragility of life, often creating immersive environments that evoke a sense of post-apocalyptic landscapes. His installations, which blur the boundaries between architecture, sculpture, and the natural world, have been exhibited internationally, including at the Venice Biennale and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, establishing him as a leading figure in contemporary art.
