Biography


Convinced that visitors are more inclined to think with the artist when emerged inside an artwork, Vincent specializes in spatial installations. Inspired by the ‘Pataphysics movement, he questions the norms of our heteronormative society by creating alternate realities. The architecture, artifacts and different machines he creates, invite visitors to interpret each design decision, and decipher the - often absurd - story he is trying to tell.

Alongside colleages from his master Space and Communication at HEAD Genève (Haute Ecole d’Art et Design), he co-founded the Collectif Kimera, in charge of ->Espace Dukat, a new art space based in Geneva. In parallel, he has also co-founded ->Souplex Atelier with friend and colleague Tanguy Troubat, where he works as a scenographer and art director.
