WORKS
EXPLORE
All of Ana Mariani's sculptures are made to commission — each one shaped by hand from rare woods and natural fibers, rooted in the landscapes and living forms that inspire her work. No two pieces are alike.
Every sculpture begins with a conversation, and grows into something singular, made in close collaboration with collectors, architects, and designers.
“Ana’s unique talent and understanding of organic materials and use of color are exceptional. Her creations are timeless and intuitive.
I recently commissioned her for a residential installation .…The organic structure and sourced yarns and materials could not have been executed better.
Both my clients and I are thrilled with the completed work.”
—Traci Shields

In each piece, white pine and birch lay the foundation, while noble fibers, from warm angora to cozy alpaca, merino wool, and delicate mohair interlace.
Spanish cotton and rayon yarn add lightness, while cashmere, silk, and qiviut whisper of luxury.
Together, each material tells a story of earth and art.
