Bio

Benedict Haener is an artist based in Luzern, Switzerland. After a classical goldsmith apprenticeship, he studied industrial design at the GBS St.Gallen and combined design and practice with the BA XS Jewelry at the HSLU Lucerne.
Benedict's work captivates viewers with its technical finesse, playful design, and irritating associations.

Statement

Benedict Haener's works captivate with technical sophistication, playfulness and the irritating familiarity of seemingly familiar everyday objects. The works are wearable. They are, at the same time, status symbols, pro- and anti-statements. Thematically, Haener defies familiar conventions with irony and wit. Values are questioned, and new qualities are constructed by Haener using surprising techniques and processes.
