Liselore Bulcke

Liselore Bulcke is an artist based in Belgium. After graduating with an MFA from LUCA School of Arts Ghent (2025), she now seeks to further explore and develop her love for the intricate by studying Conservation-Restoration at the University of Antwerp.

Having grown up in the city, she turns to nature for a breath of fresh air. She is drawn to the same forest, Munsterwood outside Genk, over and over, each time immersing herself more deeply into the underbrush, becoming more myopic and hyperaware of the wonderful mess underfoot.

Through her countless walks in the Munsterwoods, Liselore unearthed a strong attraction to those spaces we so often walk past without giving them a second thought. Where countless different elements are in play, where the branches are all entangled and where everything merges into an intricate whole. In this untameable chaos of the forest, Liselore looks for tranquillity.

With her drypoint etchings, a technique which requires a lot of time, attention and precision, Liselore forces herself to study and process those scenes intimately. She provides room for the anonymous places of the forest, letting them take up the entire frame, and giving them the attention and autonomy they deserve. She invites others to come a little closer and to rediscover their own connection to the brush, tangled branches and roots at our feet.
