“Luna”

The inspiration for this sculpture came after a conversation with a friend battling cancer. He told me about this amazing labyrinth he built to walk and pray and his spirit animal being the wolf. He asked if I would make a wolf for him. What an honor to bring these sculptures to life for his labyrinth and commemorate continued fight. These stories become intertwined with my creations, as do the people who inspire them.

John Maisano is fascinated by the artistic designs found in Celtic, African, Inuit and Tribal art which he incorporates into his sculptures. Each sculpture is inscribed with intricate designs derived from natural forms and structures. His sculptures range in size from treasures that can be held in the palm of one’s hand to larger-than-life monuments. His work focuses on graceful interpretations of animals shaped in a way that captures the life force of each animal and transforms it into something more.
