Anna Marco is already a devoted sculptress, whose work is delicate and sensual, in the idea and in the process, recreating a world that is understood by us for what it has of true and common. The expressive force of her pieces is based purely on a creative imagination that uses forms and neat but simple colorings to obtain pieces that evoke a timeless beauty, aspiration of every human being, that seems printed in the collective conscience. In effect her work, presented as an ensemble of archetypal forms, is the result of a romantic search with the explicit will of melting the creation with an original world, impregnating her works with the same creative spirit, generator with which the nature is expressed.

Her artwork is a clearly feminine, in the form and in the sense, that finds in the glass a natural means to be shown. Anna Marco understands perfectly that the nature is a big matrix that transforms everything, from which that all the living beings go out and that to which they all return. Her sculptures claim the sense of the touch, require the perception of their textures, from the subtlest to the roughest, in a clear progression that looks for communicating different sensations.

The mastership, the domination of the technique, allow her to obtain different textures, of great impact, of an innovative originality that prints to her work a personal and unmistakable stamp. Her artwork is a go and return to the natural way (Seed, Fruits), to the geometrical one (Cones) or to the symbolic one (Internal Tour, The pass of the time).
