leïla alice

leïla alice is a transdisciplinary artist based in brussels who explores the tensions between light and shadow, trust and doubt, grandeur and intimacy. through their alter ego lilo soleil, they shape a space where colour, voice, sound, and body engage in dialogue to tell stories imbued with metaphors and mysticism.

a graduate in tapestry from the royal academy of fine arts in brussels, leïla alice deepens their understanding of textures and patterns. through artisanal techniques, they also learn to find magic in patience. as an artist, leïla alice discovers a passion for performance, a form of expression that touches their heart because it offers the opportunity to merge all the art forms surrounding them to create moments that transcend the boundaries of the everyday.

their performance PARADE by leïla alice is a creation carried by 22 bodies, a first exploration of human duality through the prism of the sun and the moon — of the sky. like a tightrope walker, they oscillate between certainties and uncertainties, drawing inspiration from tales, mythology, and tarot to compose a ritual between clairvoyance and collapse, resilience and surrender.

throughout their explorations, they have invested spaces such as zinnema, decoratelier, recyclart, MORPHO, la mercerie, horst festival, pianofabriek, BRONKS, and other hybrid venues, affirming an immersive and introspective approach to performance. with la maison de lilo, first initiated at kaaitheater before coming to life at kiosk radio, they imagine a sonic refuge where emotions take shape, inviting the audience into an introspection guided by sound and vocal textures.

their research revolves around commitment to the self, the internal face-to-face, and giving form to what unsettles, sketching an open diary where sound design meets song, where experimentation becomes a terrain of truth. always in search of new territories of expression, leïla alice aspires to deepen this sensory approach, to push the limits of their first intuitions, and to find spaces ready to embrace their boldest desires for exploration.
