STATEMENT
Lynn Scheidweiler is a artist from Luxembourg whose practice operates at the crossroads of performing and visual arts, with a strong emphasis on social engagement and participatory exploration. Her work is driven by an enduring curiosity about the interplay between space, performance, and audience interaction, creating spaces where art becomes a shared experience. Central to Scheidweiler’s approach is her use of interviews as a method of research and material collection. By gathering voices, testimonies, and perspectives, she transforms these narratives into
sculptural works, paintings, installations, and musical performances. This process fosters a layered exchange of ideas, weaving diverse realities into a shared creative language.
Collaboration is a cornerstone of her artistic practice. As a founding member of the Dünne Jungs Collective since 2017, Scheidweiler has developed participatory installations and performances that emphasize shared creation and audience engagement. The collective’s series, Landscape of Questions + Answers, has been realized in spaces such as Raum für drastische Maßnahmen Berlin, Galerie Ladons Hamburg, Wagenhallen e.V. Stuttgart, Galerie Mitte Bremen, and HuMBase Stuttgart. Her sculptures and installations often act as dynamic frameworks, activated and completed by the participation of visitors. This approach reflects her belief that art is a living, interactive process that thrives on collaboration and community engagement. She studied stage and costume design at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart and the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Visuels de la Cambre in Brussels. In 2022, she completed the Post-Master Program École Offshore at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts et du Design Nancy. Scheidweiler’s theatre work has been featured at venues, including Theater Freiburg, Théâtre Royal Flamand (KVS) in Brussels, DOCK 11 Berlin, Rotondes in Luxembourg, Philharmonie Luxembourg, and Grand Théâtre de la Ville de Luxembourg. This background in theatre enriches her artistic practice, bringing a
focus on spatial awareness and performative elements to her visual art.
