Nina Staehli - Artist in Residence at the Hotel Beau Séjour
Nina's work explores central questions of humanity and the currents of our society. With a precise selection of media - from film and photography to sculpture and painting - she develops multi-layered perspectives that she condenses into narrative and site-specific installations. Her powerful cosmos impresses with a striking variety of materials and a depth of content that makes social contradictions visible and encourages viewers to reflect on the fault lines of human existence.
