Interdisciplinary Artist · Sculptor · Metalsmith

Kathia Lynne is a Puerto Rican interdisciplinary artist, sculptor, and metalsmith whose practice explores the intersections of sculpture, fashion, anatomy, and bodily adornment. Through traditional craftsmanship and experimental fabrication, she examines the relationship between material and the human form, approaching adornment as both sculptural intervention and autonomous object.

Her artistic foundation spans fashion design, sculpture, and metalsmithing, with studies at the Escuela de Artes Plásticas y Diseño de Puerto Rico, the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York City, and TOUS School for Jewelry.

In 2014, Lynne founded her namesake brand, establishing an independent practice rooted in cire perdue (lost wax casting), forging, fabrication, and assemblage. Drawing from anatomical structures, organic formations, and architectural fragments, her work challenges conventional notions of jewelry through sculptural explorations of form, structure, and material transformation.

From 2020 to 2023, Lynne worked with Balenciaga in New York under the creative direction of Demna, leading specialized fabrication and tailoring for VIP wardrobe projects and contributing to major productions including Vogue World New York and the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Benefit.

Her professional portfolio extends to red carpet productions for Cartier and Rolling Stone, alongside projects involving Bella Hadid, Alexa Demie, Candice Swanepoel, Chloë Sevigny, Salma Hayek, Christine Quinn, Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, Kanye West, Offset, Shawn Crahan of Slipknot, and François Pinault, founder of Kering.

Her independent commissioned works include sculptural adornments and custom objects for Karol G, RaiNao, Álvaro Díaz, Christine Quinn, and Matt Louis. Her work has appeared in international publications including Vogue México, Harper's Bazaar Vietnam, Rolling Stone, Playboy, Galore, and Ladygunn.

Her evolving practice incorporates reclaimed metals, organic materials, textiles, and reconstructed objects, investigating the relationship between material history, transformation, and the body. Through processes of fragmentation and assemblage, Lynne develops a sculptural language situated between artifact and adornment, precision and irregularity, construction and reconstruction.

Based in Puerto Rico, she continues to expand her practice through wearable sculpture, commissioned works, material studies, and interdisciplinary collaborations.
