Ana Norton
(b. 1990, Welland, Ontario | Lives and works in Welland, Ontario, Canada)

Ana Norton is a Canadian interdisciplinary artist whose sculptural practice explores the intersection of identity, materiality, and digital embodiment. Working primarily with 3D printing and metal casting, she investigates the blurred boundaries between virtual spaces and lived experience—particularly through the lens of her own gender transition and evolving understanding of femininity.

A graduate of OCAD University’s Sculpture and Installation program (2012), Norton uses technology as both tool and metaphor, translating digital models into tactile, permanent forms that challenge the fragility and mutability of constructed identity. Her work often engages themes of transformation, bodily autonomy, and the translation of abstract cultural codes into tangible form. In this way, Norton’s sculptures serve as personal artifacts and cultural reflections, giving physical presence to ideas once confined to digital or internal spaces.

Ana Norton’s work appeals to collectors and curators interested in contemporary art that pushes the boundaries of sculpture, identity, and technology, while offering poignant reflections on gender, selfhood, and material transformation.
