Biography:

Laetitia Heisler is a French-German visual artist based in Berlin. She began her creative journey at the Conservatory of Dance in southern France, then performed as a singer in a rock band before turning to visual art.

Her practice investigates the body as a sensitive surface through analogue photography, textile, and experimental processes. Working directly with materials via self-portraiture and darkroom experiments, she produces images that bear traces of gesture, time, and transformation. Heisler’s work has been shown in solo and group shows across Europe, especially in northern Germany and in Edinburgh (UK), and she is currently developing installations that extend the photographic medium into three dimensional space.

Laetitia Heisler in the darkroom
A woman with shoulder-length brown hair and fair skin sits at a wooden table in a dimly lit room, holding a wine glass in her right hand. She is wearing a white blouse and appears to be looking at a spilled item on the table, with a cluttered art-covered wall behind her.
