Facundo Cerain Vázquez is a Uruguayan-Argentine artist who grew up in Buenos Aires before moving to Paris. After studying at the National University of the Arts (UNA) in Buenos Aires, he is currently pursuing a master’s degree at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, where he studies in the studios of Tatiana Trouvé and Chloé Quenum.
Through embroidery, sewing, installation, and the assemblage of found objects and materials, Facundo Cerain Vázquez develops a practice that explores notions of care, memory, desire, and repair. Self-taught in embroidery, he places the medium at the heart of his work: through the slowness and repetition of the gesture, he creates intimate spaces in which materials retain the traces of their previous lives. Balancing the sensuality of textiles with the fragility of materials, his works propose a mode of attentive temporality that resists the accelerating rhythms of contemporary life.
In 2025, his third-year graduation project, “Ritmo de floración”, was presented in a solo exhibition at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris and received the jury’s highest honors.
His work has also been presented in several group exhibitions, notably at Galerie C (“Between Lunch and Something Else”, 2026), JULIO Artist Run Space (2026), 229 Lab (2025), Agence de voyages (2025), and Air de Paris (“Une mer des petites flammes”, 2024; “Le lent demain”, 2026).
