BIOGRAPHY

Antoine Félix Bürcher (b. 1999, Paris) is a Swiss artist from Lausanne based in Zürich, Switzerland.

His pluridisciplinary practice develops a critical post-digital conceptual reflection on the passage of time, addressing our contemporaneity and its infrastructure of the imaginary.

The artist proposes a poetic resistance to digital saturation through a nonlinear aesthetic of time, a space to think differently about the world to come. At the crossroads of reality, dreams and speculative fiction, the work questions our relationship to time. With his glass sculptures, a material that is both fragile and resistant, he creates ambiguous objects, halfway between archaeological relics and fossils from an uncertain future - silent witnesses of future imaginary metaversed civilizations.

Antoine Felix Burcher holds a Master's degree in Fine Arts from the Zurcher Hochschule der Kunste, Zurich (2025) and a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts (construction-sculpture) from HEAD - Geneva (2022). In 2025, his work was recognized with the Prix Arts Visuels Vaud (AVV). His works is part of numerous private collections and was recently acquired by the public collection of the MUDAC, Lausanne (2025).
