Born in 1993, Lilia Medjeber lives and works in Paris. She studied graphic design

at Académie Charpentier before turning fully to painting. Her paintings open onto a theatre of nature—scenes of spectacle where everything is in flux. Amid shifting sets, strange, dazzling figures—almost clown-like—take the stage. Draped in patterns, they shift skins and roles —slipping from eclipse to insect. Neither symbolic nor narrative, these avatars move through the image like living disguises, courting misunderstanding.

Inspired by the shifting forms and fleeting states of the natural world, Lilia Medjeber composes visual masquerades where bodies and landscapes blur into one. Nothing is still—everything transforms. The result is a kind of plastic dyslexia, where scales collide and reference points dissolve into an impermanent poetry.

In this transmorphic cosmos, her figures are made to captivate and perform. In a world where disparate elements coexist, painting becomes a way to reconfigure what we take for granted. Disrupting fixed narratives and diverting expectations becomes a poetic act. The absence of hierarchy acts as a rhythm, allowing the unexpected to surface—free, dissonant, and necessary.

Lilia Medjeber furthered her exploration through several residencies, including the MAQOM Residency in Gapyeong (South Korea), and the former printing house of the Belgian National Bank (Brussels). Her work has been shown in group exhibitions across France and internationally, including the Galerie Michel Rein (Paris), Stems Gallery (Brussels), and MAQOM Gallery in South Korea.
