Peter Gargas

Peter Gargas Sculptor

Peter trained in stone sculpture for 5 years in Poland where his training included
the tradition of studying and copying the work of the great classical sculptors.
He was invited to join a company focussed on the restoration of decorative
stone features on historic buildings of Oxfordshire.

Throughout this practical immersion in art, Peter developed the skills to
envisage and recreate heavily eroded and damaged sculptures in the style of the
original artists. Inevitably, his work has been described as ‘cosmetic surgery’ in
stone, but more importantly, these skills have led to the development of Peter’s
own contemporary artistic style.
