Andrea Mancuso
ARTIST
Andrea Mancuso is an Italian designer whose work lives at the threshold between art and collectible design, where objects transcend function to tell stories. Born in Rome and shaped by years in London, he co-founded Analogia Project before establishing his own studio, rooted in material research, artisan collaborations, and a fascination with cultural narratives.
Since 2015, Mancuso has been represented by Nilufar Gallery, presenting landmark collections such as Pentimenti - marble tables etched with ink-filled markings - and Acquario, glass and ceramic installations inspired by imagined marine forms.
He has created work for leading brands and institutions including Bulgari, Fendi, Hermès, Ferragamo, Lema, and Perrier-Jouët, producing collectible furniture, installations, and immersive scenography that fuse craftsmanship, storytelling, and timeless design.
