In What Is Left Behind each image captures an unexpected detail discovered during Natalie’s wanderings, something in the landscape that stopped her in her tracks, often a subtle trace of human presence that doesn’t quite belong.

All photographs were taken between 2019 and 2026, mostly in India and Belgium, with a few made elsewhere.

Growing up in the quiet Belgian countryside, Natalie developed a deep connection to the natural world, which instilled a sense of slowness, grounding, and oneness. This way of being and seeing shapes her photographic practice. She is drawn to quiet moments, subtle details, small wonders that often go unnoticed, dark or eerie scenes, and things that often only she finds hilarious.

Exploring new places (a mix of escapism and a search for beauty) zooming in on details, and scanning for grids helps her feel grounded and make sense of the world and her place in it.

Natalie Lycops is a Belgian graphic designer, photographer, and visual artist who has experimented with various mediums. Her life and work unfold between Belgium and India. Her visual art and photography has been exhibited in India and Belgium.
