Ana Goris: A Silent Alchemy at NYC Jewelry Week 2026

Meet Argentina-based jeweler Ana Goris, whose wearable sculptures are rooted in the geography and architectural history of the Andes. She works with materials that have already lived: reclaimed timber from century-old wineries, bronze, and Eco Stone, her ultralight composite of Andean minerals, natural pigments, and recycled paper. Its lightness allows sculptural scale that can still be worn. Each piece is one of a kind, made by hand in her atelier in Mendoza. Shown for the first time in New York City, her work will be on view and for sale, presented with In Heroes We Trust, The Jewelry Library, and The Alpaca Library by Yanawara, with a reception celebrating Andean craftsmanship.

Ana Goris is a visual artist and jewelry designer based in Mendoza, Argentina. From her atelier in Chacras de Coria, she creates brutalist wearable sculpture from materials that have already lived: reclaimed timber from century-old wineries, Andean stone, bronze, and Eco Stone, an ultralight mineral composite she developed herself. Her work was selected by Ruudt Peters for exhibition and shown at the Latin American Biennial of Contemporary Jewelry. She is devoted to this alchemy.

Yanawara is a New York-born knitwear brand meaning “star that comes from afar” in Aymara. Rooted in the Andes and founded by Pamela Burgos, the brand blends contemporary design with Bolivia’s ancestral textile traditions. Working alongside indigenous master artisans, they are Nest-Certified and create fair-trade alpaca and llama knitwear. Their West Village boutique, The Alpaca Library, serves as a cozy haven celebrating sustainable heritage and slow fashion.

In Heroes We Trust is a collaborative shop and experiential company led by creative producer and fashion designer Neely Shearer. Now based in New York City’s West Village, IHWT brings together designer vintage, contemporary designers, original art, and cultural programming. Neely produces events, exhibitions, pop-ups, brand collaborations, and curated experiences across fashion, hospitality, art, and culture. She is also the author of In Heroes We Trust: Street Artists and Their Heroes.

Founded in 2018, The Jewelry LIbrary hosts a wide range of exhibitions, talks, and events all across the jewelry-spectrum, collaborating with both contemporary and vintage gallerists, artists, and collectors, as well as storytellers, historians, makers, and wearers. Our mission is to promote jewelry literacy: creating opportunities to look more closely, ask questions, make connections, handle “pieces,” and understand jewelry beyond its role of adornment.
