In some cultures a moth may represent death- yet in others it represents life and change. The term “seeing the light” really spoke to John Maisano, causing an awakening of sorts. The beauty of nature travels in and through us as we encounter it. The luna moth’s beautiful shape and patterns are traveling through the big bear and manifesting in the design on his back. John loves the juxtaposition of this large formidable creature, enjoying the visitation of the delicate Luna moth.

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.
