Lily D’Olce is a French, fine arts photographer based in Barcelona and Milan. Her work displays elongated, textile figures suspended in movement across  peripheral landscapes and studio interiors. Living sculptures suggest a state of becoming: drifting, arching and reassembling.

Since 2020, she has worked as an advisor & social researcher for United Nations agencies, documenting urban development programmes in various Sub-Saharan Africa regions. Immersed in informal settlements, she encountered resilience not as abstraction, but as daily gesture: collaborative, improvised, quietly radical. This experience deeply informs her visual language.

Lily's choreographic installations take shape in found fabrics and discarded materials sourced across Africa and Europe. Through precise modeling of gesture and form, she constructs spectral compositions that are fluid and transient, yet anchored in presence. Reflections on identity and eroticism are central to the wrapped textures in luminous silk. Each figure is a vessel that carries traces of memory and change, shaped into timeless sceneries.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Lily D’Olce’s work was acquired by the Ettore Molinario Collection in Milan.
