Elisa Vanelli is a visionary sculptor whose work bridges the human and natural worlds. Her forms often merge human and animal characteristics, evoking an ancient time when the two were not separate but deeply intertwined. Influenced by natural geometry, energetic systems, and the memory held in water, her sculptures invite us to remember our original bond with the Earth and its creatures. Drawing from shamanic traditions and the rhythms of the wild, Vanelli reimagines a world where instinct, intuition, and interconnection are not lost—but waiting to be remembered.

Named one of Art New England Magazine’s 2024 Emerging Artists of Massachusetts, Vanelli’s work continues to gain recognition for its ability to stir memory and awaken a sense of sacred presence in the natural world.
