Mariana Mora (she/they) is a multidisciplinary artist and designer who runs Squiglie Studio, a creative practice that explores design, art direction, production, and sculpture across a wide range of mediums. Working with print, ceramics, and emerging technologies like creative coding, Mariana’s work blends experimentation with craft to produce pieces that feel colorful, playful, and a little bit magical.

Rooted in collaboration and community, Squiglie Studio embraces cross-disciplinary creativity, moving fluidly between digital and physical forms to explore new ways of making and storytelling. Mariana’s artistic influences range widely, drawing inspiration from visionary artists like Hilma af Klint, Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Beatriz González.

In Portland, Mariana finds constant inspiration in the city’s creative community and shared spaces where artists gather and experiment together. Places like the Independent Publishing Resource Center (IPRC) and local music venues continue to shape the collaborative spirit that drives her work.

Through Squiglie Studio, Mariana creates projects that feel vibrant, expressive, and exploratory, art that invites people into colorful and imaginative worlds.
