Sam Lomprez (b.1997, Sèvres in France) is a Brussels-based visual artist with a master’s degree in Photography, politics and graphic experimentations from the École de Recherche Graphique (ERG) – ESA St-Luc in Brussels, Belgique. Her practice combines photography, video, graphic design, and narrative experimentation, as evidenced by her project The Hens No Longer Lay, which explores the relationships between bodies, territory, and domesticated spaces.
Sam’s artistic practice evolves around the themes of temporality, fragility, and the interplay between natural and artificial landscapes. Through photography and multidisciplinary exploration, Sam investigates spaces caught in suspension — territories where time seems to have stopped, and where landscapes appear vulnerable and deformed. Her work reflects a deep fascination with traces and imprints, ephemeral moments that evoke the tension between presence and disappearance.
She attempt to capture interstitial spaces, fragments of landscapes that seem to exist in a state of liminality — small, empty intervals between the parts of a greater whole.
Her main project The Hens No longer Lay has been published in various print and digital media, threw Italy, France or in Belgium, and exhibited in collective exhibitions in New Jersey in 2021, and recently in Bruxelles, last December 2024.
Alongside her personal creation, she has worked as a studio assistant with artists such as Stéphanie Roland and Studio Lemercier, and participated in the co- curation of the PERSEVERANCE IV exhibition at the Montoro12 gallery. With experience in venues such as the Art et Marges museum, she has developed a sensitive approach to images and their contexts, with a keen interest in contemporary issues and hybrid forms of storytelling. Versatile, rigorous, and endowed with strong technical and logistic skills, she seeks to establish herself in a stimulating artistic environment, where she can contribute to creation while enriching her know-how.
