Vincent Grange
Drawing on LGBTQIA+ histories, queer identities, and speculative storytelling, Vincent Grange builds worlds populated by fictional characters and symbolic artefacts that question societal norms and power structures. The architecture, artefacts and different sculptures he creates, invite visitors to interpret each decision he takes, and decipher the often absurd and camp story he is writing. Across his exhibitions, Grange writes a continuous, evolving story - each show developing from the previous one. Charactors reappear, objects resurface, and spaces interconnect, forming a growing universe that unfolds across time and place.
After gaining his Master’s in Space and Communication at HEAD – Genève (Haute École d’Art et Design), Grange co-founded and is part of Collectif Kimera, in charge of Espace Dukat, a new contemporary art space based in Geneva. Additionally, he co-founded Souplex Atelier with his colleague and friend Tanguy Troubat, where he works as a scenographer and art director for institutions like Istituto Svizzero, HEAD Genève, and emerging artists.
His work has been featured in The Madwomen of Chaillot, Galerie Fabian Lang, Zurich, CH in 2025 (solo show), Eyes Open, I Breath Again, Alice Amati Gallery, London, UK in 2025 (group show), The House of Dorothy, Istituto Svizzero, Milan, IT in 2025 (solo show) and Dorothy's House, Printemps Carougeois, Geneva, CH in 2024 (solo show).
In 2023, he received the Déliée Grant from the Fonds Cantonal d’Art Contemporain, and in 2024, he was awarded the Kiefer Hablitzel Göhner Prize at the Swiss Art Awards.

Dorothy’s Office is a room extracted from The House of Dorothy (2023-today), an ongoing immersive installation imagining the secret home of Dorothy—a fictional queer figure inspired by the coded expression “Friends of Dorothy,” historically used within LGBTQIA+ communities as a discreet way to recognize one another. Conceived as part domestic interior, part refuge, the project explores themes of secrecy, surveillance, chosen family, and queer survival through a series of interconnected rooms filled with symbolic objects and hidden narratives. In this isolated chapter presented at Basel Social Club, Dorothy’s Office takes the form of a surreal surveillance room where mirrors, cameras, and hybrid domestic objects reflect the tension between visibility and concealment that has long shaped queer existence.
