We are pleased to welcome Swiss artist Guillaume Ehinger (
@guillaumeehinger ) for a one-month residency at La Becque in March 2026.
Based in Vevey, Ehinger develops a practice at the intersection of painting, sculpture, and installation. Drawing from scenes of everyday life, his layered works explore the tensions between abstraction and figuration, appropriation and memory, questioning the status of the image in an era of visual saturation. Oscillating between appearance and disappearance, his practice brings together shifting materialities and temporalities, affirming both the fragility of the gaze and the resistance of matter.
This residency takes place as part of our partnership with Nestlé (
@nestle.ch ). Guillaume Ehinger is the laureate of the Nestlé Young Art Prize 2025.
Join us at La Becque on Saturday, March 21 to discover Ehinger’s ongoing research during the Spring Open Studios.
