Biography
Seline Burn was born in 1995 in Wattwil, Switzerland. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Illustration Fiction from the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU) in Switzerland. She lives and works in Basel, Switzerland. Raised in various places across Switzerland, Burn expresses a longstanding desire to present her work akin to a journal, drawing inspiration from recent experiences, distant dreams and internal reflections. Focussing on the human condition, she distils these elusive themes into vibrant interplays of light and shadow, celebrating the nuances inside the context and the dynamics of family and friendship. Burn’s work has been featured in exhibitions in Switzerland and abroad such as at the Kunsthaus Pasquart (Biel, Switzerland), Kunstmuseum Thun (Switzerland), Wilde (Geneva and Basel, Switzerland), Everyday Moonday Gallery (Seoul, Korea), Eve Leibe Gallery (London, UK and Torino, Italy), Delphian Gallery (Ligné, France and Helsinki, Finland). Her work is in the permanent collection of the Baloise Art (Switzerland).
