Barbara Vandendriessche

bio

Barbara Vandendriessche is a Brussels-based photographer, artist and theatre-maker. Her multidisciplinary oeuvre merges scenography, visual language and corporeality. She uses her background as a stage director to create a layered visual language that extends to both photography and sculpture. Since 2008 she has mentored young makers at LUCA Drama, a dialogue that continues to enrich her own artistic practice. Her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions in Belgium and abroad, including at Rotterdam Photo, Haute Photographie, Lens op de Mens and in Paris, Athens, Istanbul and London. In 2018, she was selected as one of the most promising artists by the No Name Collective Gallery. Her work has since been recognised by Life Framer, the Julia Margaret Cameron Award and the ND Awards.
