Liselor Perez

Liselor Perez (b. 1999, Montélimar, France) lives and works in Paris. She graduated from the École nationale supérieure des Beaux Arts de Paris in 2025, where she studied in the studio of Dominique Figarella, after receiving her BFA from Villa Arson in Nice in 2022. In 2023 and 2024, she also took part in a ceramics exchange program at Tokyo University of the Arts (Geidai).

Liselor Perez’s practice unfolds across drawing, sculpture, installation and performance, within a world where domestic space becomes the setting for strange and intimate fictions. Her works often take the form of dolls, puppets or hybrid bodies, made from domestic textiles, wood and materials carrying traces of previous use.
Through these vulnerable, sometimes childlike and unsettling figures, Perez explores the construction of identity, intimacy and our relationship to the environments that shape us. Furniture, clothing, fabrics and architecture often become extensions of the body, at times almost merging with it. Shifts in scale, from miniature to monumental, constantly reposition the viewer and blur the boundaries between object, setting and figure.
Moving between tenderness, absurdity and unease, her work draws on memories of childhood and familiar objects while addressing questions of power, gender and vulnerability within intimate spaces. Her queer and feminist approach uses fiction and the fantastic as tools to explore both personal and collective memory.
