Anaisa Franco specializes in crafting evocative sculptures designed for public spaces. Her overarching mission revolves around invigorating these public spaces through a creative and interactive approach, seamlessly transforming mundane moments of transit into enchanting and sensory-rich experiences.

Drawing inspiration from the realms of Biophilia, cognitive science, and psychology, Franco's works often manifest in graceful and organic shapes reminiscent of fundamental life forms, spanning both molecular and macroscopic scales. An integral facet of Anaisa's artistic vision lies in forging distinctive connections between these microcosmic and cosmic domains, such as juxtaposing the intricate patterns of the human iris with the cosmic grandeur of the Milky Way, thereby reshaping our perceptions of the world we inhabit.

To bring her visionary creations to life, Anaisa Franco employs the precision of parametric design and the capabilities of digital fabrication, synergizing them with cutting-edge technology. Her interactive sculptures seamlessly bridge the gap between physical structural elements and the digital frontier, artfully employing digital lighting, sensors, and innovative materials to create immersive and captivating experiences.
