AuthorAloma Lafontana

Aloma Lafontana is a wearable sculpture artist who explores the relationships between the inner world of women and the objects that surround them. Proposing a journey through the oneiric world of the ornamentation. With sculptures adapted to the body where the feelings and sensations come alive in front of the viewer. Lafontana uses natural and upcycled materials as a dialogue between the increasing consumption of human beings and their relationship with the ecosystem of the planet. Being built with natural and reused materials, with their past lives and usages, the pieces are loaded with layers of symbolism and value. The statement is the conjunction between the body and the ornament where the dressed object acts as an element of the superposition of meanings. Changing the behavior of those who wear the pieces to the point of transforming their inside and on the bounce their outside. In parallel to artistic creation, Aloma Lafontana has made costume designs for experimental projects, as well as music videos, dance, performance, circus, theatre, and advertising campaigns.
