BIO
Nathalie Alfonso (b. 1987, Bogotá, Colombia) is a South Florida–based artist whose practice explores the body, memory, ephemerality, landscape, and visibility and invisibility. Working across drawing, installation, video, and performance, she uses line and gesture to push the physical limits of mark-making and endurance.
Her work has been exhibited at institutions including the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, the Orlando Museum of Art, NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale, the Baker Museum, Dimensions Variable, Spinello Projects, Sweet Pass Sculpture Park, the Frank Gallery, and Marymount University. Alfonso holds an MFA from Southern Methodist University and a BFA from Florida International University. She is a recipient of the Florida Prize in Contemporary Art (2025, Orlando Museum of Art), the Juried Prize at No Vacancy (2025, Miami Beach), and the South Florida Cultural Consortium Fellowship (2020), and was previously nominated for the Joan Mitchell Fellowship (2021) and the United States Artists Fellowship (2023–2024). She has completed a commissioned project through Miami-Dade Art in Public Places.
She has participated in residencies at MASS MoCA, Anderson Ranch, Atlantic Center for the Arts, Kinosaito Art Center, and R.A.R.O. Bogotá.
