Casa Gros by Ana Gross
Ana Gross is a textile artist based between Paris and Miami whose work explores the intersection of art, craftsmanship, and memory. Her practice centers on sculptural textile pieces—couture dolls—meticulously hand-embroidered with thousands of beads and precious materials. Each work requires over 160 hours of labor, resulting in intricate, tactile forms that feel both delicate and alive. Through these creations, Gross investigates themes of childhood, emotional memory, and transformation, translating personal narratives into richly detailed, dimensional objects.
With a background in fashion design and haute couture embroidery, including training at the Institut Français de la Mode and Atelier Lesage, Gross brings exceptional technical precision to her artistic practice. Her transition into contemporary art reflects a reconnection with her family heritage in fine arts and toy-making, informing a body of work that is both intimate and visually striking. Blending discipline with playfulness, her pieces balance refinement and imagination, inviting viewers into a poetic space where craftsmanship and storytelling converge.
