Almonte Studio creates emotionally resonant worlds through color, nature, and imagination.
About Me
Led by Afro-Dominican artist Talisa Almonte, Almonte Studio is a multidisciplinary practice rooted in Latin identity, community, and life in New York City, her work explores healing, transformation, and the relationship between inner life and the natural world.
Through surreal florals, symbolic figures, and dreamlike landscapes, she creates layered visual stories that translate emotional experience into vivid, immersive work.
Her practice moves fluidly across scale. Shifting from expansive public works to more intimate, symbolic pieces. Her work invites viewers to slow down, look closer, and connect, offering a visual language for change, resilience, and becoming.
Available for murals, commissions, exhibitions, and thoughtful collaborations.
