Mike Bourscheid lives and works in Luxemburg and in Vancouver. He received his MFA at the University of arts Berlin (UdK) under the guidance of Michaela Meise and Lothar Baumgarten.
Growing up in Luxembourg, Bourscheid’s youth was immersed in storytelling, fairy tales and the personal heroics of daily pub culture. His hometown was small and conservative. Like most small towns, the pubs were the epicentre of drama, where suppressed social and political tensions were released through telling jokes. Sometimes the only way to express yourself honestly in a conservative environment is through the guise of humour.
