Anne’s sculptures are intricately hand-crafted from the fibers of the Agave sisalana plant. Used by the Aztecs and the Mayans to make fabrics and paper, the sisal plant consists of a rosette of 6-foot tall sword-shaped leaves, with each leaf containing an average of 1,000 fibers. These materials are a reflection of the natural world.
The eyes are hand-painted fired glass and the nose is mounted on clay.
