Julian Stettler, born in 1998, is an artist and a photographer based in Lucerne, Switzerland. He graduated with a Bachelor in Camera Arts from the Lucerne School of Art and Design in 2022. His work revolves around fundamental questions of identity and our entanglements within the world. It is always influenced by scientific research and combines empirical knowledge with spirituality. By visualizing the many beings and forces that we interact with, Julian aims to capture the diverse expressions of the universe and challenge viewers to reflect on their place within it. For him, questioning who we are and what we are part of is essential to live as part of a diverse yet entangled world.
Beyond his personal artistic practice, he is a member of the cultural collective anané, which organises a wide variety of events, ranging from brunches to art markets and film screenings. He is also Co-Chairman of Verein Zusammenspiel that organised the 2024 melt dome Olten.
