Chromeo

David Kümin, alias Chromeo, was born in 1982 and grew up in Winterthur. Already fascinated as a child by murals and illegal graffiti, the observer became the actor: as a teenager he picked up the spray can, which marked his start as an artist. At the Kunsthochschule Luzern he completed the Master in Fine Arts, Public Spheres and Major Art Teaching. It matters to Chromeo that his works have depth of content and are not merely decorative in character. With his work he wants to prompt the viewer to engage with the piece.
