Aloma Lafontana

Aloma Lafontana is a multidisciplinary artist exploring the intersection of body, materiality, and sustainability. Working with natural and reused materials, she investigates ecofeminism, material memory, and the interconnectedness between body, territory, and life.

Lafontana is a sculptor and costume designer born in Barcelona and based in Pla de l’Estany (Girona). Her multidisciplinary practice explores the relationship between body, matter, and identity.

She works with natural and reused materials, often fragile or transformable, connected to natural cycles and vital processes. From an ecofeminist perspective, her work reflects on the interdependence between matter, territory, and life, as well as on rituals, ancestral knowledge, and material memory.

Her references range from Jana Sterbak, Rebecca Horn to Joan Brossa, with a deep interest in ancestral clothing.

Trained as a sculptor at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Barcelona, Lafontana furthered her knowledge with a Master’s in Theatrical Costume (IED).

Since 2010, she has created her projects and worked on commissions for renowned artists and companies, such as Lady Gaga, Isabel Coixet, Rigoberta Bandini, and La Fura dels Baus.

Also worked as a seamstress for international campaigns with renowned artists and companies, such as Johnny Depp for Dior, Rosalia for MAC Cosmetics, and Lily Collins for Lancome.

Currently, she combines the sale of artwork with costume commissions. She also works occasionally as a teacher in workshops and at the styling master’s program at LCI.
