Biography

Encor Studio was founded in 2015 in Neuchâtel by artists Mirko Eremita, David Houncheringer, Manuel Oberholzer and Valerio Spoletini. The productions of the Swiss collective, which uses reflections, waves and light, play with perceptions by exploiting the foundations of graphic art. True sensory experiences, their audio visual installations are immersive and constantly evolving, combining architecture, photography, virtual reality, scenography, mapping, sound vibrations and lighting effects. Each project by Encor Studio – usually specifically designed for a particular place – explores light in all its forms and also testifies to the collective’s fascination with the way technology is now ubiquitous. Their works are regularly exhibited in Swiss cultural institutions, such as at
Fri Art in 2020 and the Musée d’art et d’histoire in Neuchâtel in 2019, and are mainly presented in major international cultural events, such as the Yue-jin festival in Taiwan in 2020 and the Fête des Lumières in Lyon in 2019 and 2018. Encor Studio also collaborates with international designers, such as Sankuanz, a luxury fashion brand based in Shanghai with which they have worked since 2017.
