Liselore Vandeput (1993) is a visual artist who graduated from the MA program at Luca School of Arts in 2021. Her work intertwines questions of labour, working conditions and women’s stories. With a background in social work, she has been collaborating with people outside her own field, such as choreographers, performers, craftspeople and local communities, and has long standing interest in cultural community work. Her focus lies on bottom-up practices rooted in locality.

As a young emerging artist, she raises questions about the realities of labour and economy within the arts, the inequalities of the field and the sustainability of her career choice. These questions took form in the performative installation The Artist Travel Agency, presented at the exhibition On and Off the Clock with Inga Gerner Nielsen at SB34 (2022) and later at The Green Corridor (2024), as well as in the lightbox installation Am I Lost In The Labour, Or Is This My Own Design?, which was part of the EAT exhibition by The Solo Project in Brussels.

In 2019, Liselore co-founded MOTA 000 Nomadic Conversations with artists Eszter Némethi and Julia Rubies, a series of nomadic conversations in Brussels (2019–2023) that criss-crossed the city and connected artists through shared questions and enquiries. The project was supported by several local institutions, including workspacebrussels, The Green Corridor, La Vallée and N0dine, as well as the VGC. Liselore has also worked within different social-artistic and transdisciplinary projects, such as t a s t b a a r with Caroline D’Haese, Radical_hope_house and the production Unfixing the Atlas with Heike Langsdorf, and through her involvement with State of the Arts. These projects were supported by the Vlaamse Overheid and connected to institutions in the art field, such as Buda, Kunstenwerkplaats, and Kiosk.

Liselore further explores the transmission of knowledge across generations of women. In À Ma Chère Arrière Arrière Petite Fille (2022), she worked with women from Peterbos to map mothers’ and grandmothers’ stories into a digital space for future generations. To Marie / Aan Marie (2021–2024) was presented at Art Au Centre #12 in Liège (2023) and as part of Surrounding Jef Geys (exhibition and talk) at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp. The work follows a geranium inherited from Jef Geys’ mother, using its journey to reflect on women’s presence, collective memory and everyday histories.
Since 2024 Liselore works with Einat Tuchman within the Bildy Project, developing the Marché Bildy Market on handmade products, multicultural community, local consumption and the relationship between maker and consumer. The market is part of Urban Ritual, a dance performance supported by the Vlaamse Overheid and presented at Kaaitheater, Buda, Monty, and Kanal. In 2025, they created The Bildy Mobile Shop, a mobile market stand posing questions on women’s traditional crafts to questions of labour, knowledge and sustainability, and received support from the VGC and N0dine.
