ARCHITECT
STUDIO DIRECTOR

.
Nessim Kaufmann is a visual artist and architect based in Geneva. His practice organises itself around the terms Space, Image and Literature. Space and image-making have been disciplines of awakening, studied in the framework of a master in architecture at EPFL. The diploma work elaborated in this school allowed him to link together narration and space design through the means of architectural grammar. A second master’s degree undertaken at HEAD Geneva clarified the forms and means of his work. Writing, drawing and installations are combined around phenomenological themes. His recent works have investigated the interface nearing art, design and fiction. All the attempts wish to deliver a personal synthesis of long-standing fascinations: for literature in all its forms on one hand, for the aesthetics and imagination of tekhnè on the other.
