Alexander Huegel was born in 1984 in Mediasch and grew up in Romania and Southern Germany. After studying Photography at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Fachhochschule Dortmund, he worked as a self-taught media artist in the context of theatre, opera, performance, and video mapping.

Huegel has designed several multimedia stage sets for theatre institutions such as for the Opera Theatre Opernhaus Dortmund with the plays “La Juive” and “Die Bürgschaft”. He has also cooperated with the Academy for Theatre and Digitality and the Project Playon!  at the new piece “Persona" funded by the EU, among other projects. For the binational livestream theatre play “Lysis-Structure” by Ayşe Kalmaz, he developed the hybrid stage design. He currently collaborates with several independent theatre collectives and museums in NRW, including LWL Archaeology Museum Herne.

Alexander Huegel has been working since 2018 as a media artist in WHY NOT? KOLLEKTIV, committed to creating not hegemonically coded spaces. In doing so, he critically reflects on the construction possibilities of narrative structures in gaming, in terms of hybrid stages, and their representation of performative works in collective processes.
