Collectif Kimera, inspired by ‘Chimera’, a whimsical animal from Greek mythology composed of different animals and their parts, brings together ten artists and designers with diverse practices. 
They share a common interest in presenting alternative realities that help contemplate new potential futures collectively. They do so through the creation of transdisciplinary projects using spatial installations and exhibitions. Their practices are mutually enriched through the social issues they address. 

The collective's work specialises in immersive multimedia installations to engage audiences. They create new spaces that encourage exchange between artists and audiences, exploring and tackling issues such as queer rights, feminism, ecology and dynamics of oppression.

GUEST ARTISTS

TRISTAN BARTOLINI (he/him)

At the intersection of visual arts and communication, Tristan Bartolini's practice blends installation, sculpture, video, and graphic design, with a constant desire to challenge gender norms. Drawing inspiration from the visual codes of the occult, science fiction, and queer culture, his work deconstructs human and imaginary languages, rewriting narratives that are speculative. These narratives celebrate queer marginalities and offer new inclusive and queer perspectives. 

A previous winner of the Prix de Art Humanité, his work has been widely recognised and exhibited in various places ranging from MCBA, MUDAC, Ljubljana Design Biennial, the Red Cross Museum and Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève. He continues to explore connections between art, memory and social transformation.

CAMILLE BELLMAS (she/her)

Camille Bellmas’s practice is dedicated to creating engaging, critical, and inclusive spaces and fostering dialogue within the institutions she engages with. She places specific emphasis on amplifying the voices of underrepresented communities, including women and the LGBTQIA+ community. By actively involving the audience and encouraging their participation, Camille strives to cultivate a sense of shared concern and collective responsibility, ensuring that all voices are heard and valued. 

In her professional practice, she has been involved in designing communication materials for various associations in Switzerland, helping them effectively convey their visions to a wider audience.

ANKITA DAS (she/her)

Ankita Das is a communication designer and an aspiring design fabulist driven by a practice in motion towards creating work that informs, engages and stimulates the audience.

Wanting to make a difference in the world, she strives to be kind and empathetic. It is her greatest interest to explore how to make complex information that is not accessible to everyone in an ever-changing world, understandable and engaging through different media spanning photography, editorial design, performance and artefacts. 

She has been featured in Vogue, Financial Times and NBC, with exhibitions at places such as the PhotoVogue festival, Milan, Peckham 24 festival, London and the National Geographic Photo Camp Exhibition, Washington DC.

VINCENT GRANGE (he/him)

Specialising in immersive installations, Vincent Grange tells stories through spatial experimentation. He uses the absurd to challenge heteronormativity and explore the paradoxes of queer identities. 

Works such as The House of Dorothy (2023) and its extensions — Dorothy's Closet (2024), Dorothy's Picnic Set (2024) and Dorothy’s Interior Boulevard (2025) — transform spaces into three-dimensional fables in which each element, from the architecture to the objects, contributes to telling the story it is writing. 

His work earned him the Kiefer Hablitzel Göhner Prize (Swiss Art Awards 2024) and the Bourse Déliée du Fonds Cantonal d'Art Contemporain 2023. As the co-founder of Souplex Atelier, he works as a set designer and artistic director for various cultural events.

CYAN HUESCAR (they/them)

Cyan Huescar focuses their research on the spaces inbetween, the places where different realities can coexist. Their approach is multi and transdisciplinary, creating performances, installations and larps (live action role-playing) in which they explore the notions of presences, roles and wavering.

They mainly work in collaboration with other artists within diverse collectives (RrA, Globuleuxes, Pampeliška) with whom several creations have had the opportunity to be presented on different stages of Geneva. 

Their current work mainly revolves around the idea of practicing grieving as an art practice and vice-versa. They are thus interested in the notions of thresholds, archives and transitions as different ways of approaching the topic.

DIVINE K. (she/they/he)

Divine is a terrible lip-syncer who particularly enjoys making up stories about themselves.

Divine is interested in what fails, what lies hidden, or what glimmers in the dark. Through installation, writing, video, performance, and model-making, they create melancholic, camp worlds that draw on popular culture, summoning ghost-like images that accompany them. In their work, they use collage and reappropriation to navigate networks of affinities within a queer genealogy, leading us to pleasurable encounters in the darkrooms. The practice of cruising thus becomes a way of inhabiting the contradictions of a quest that embraces fantasy, deviations, backtracking, dissonances, absences and excesses.

HSUAN LEE (she/they/he)

Hsuan Lee works across various media, including interactive objects, immersive installations, and films. By transforming ready-made objects, she invites the public into parallel worlds or speculative fiction. In 2023, at the age of 28, she faced a major health challenge. Since then, her work has shifted from discussions on the macro view on technology issues to personal exploration of her medical experience and queer identity. 

Her artworks have been exhibited in Taiwan, France, and Switzerland, including at the Mapping Festival, the BIG (Biennale Insulaire des Espaces d’Art de Genève), and the Fesses-tival.
