Oui Move In You is a major solo exhibition by Turner Award-winning, French artist Laure Prouvost. Best known for creating idiosyncratic immersive installations combining film and mixed media, Oui Move In You introduces Western Australian audiences to the imaginative, absorbing and frequently absurdist hallmarks of Prouvost’s artistic practice.
Inspired by the radical, experimental and pathfinding figures who came before her, Oui Move In You conceptually explores the roles and legacies of grandmothers (both real and symbolic), the maternal spaces of mother and child, and ideas of intergenerational relationships and change. The exhibition takes audiences on a journey of evolution and transformation, from the watery space of the womb, through the earthly realm of childhood towards a climactic celestial release. Laure Prouvost’s Oui Move In You is composed as a celebration of liberation and imagination, being and belonging, care and connection across the evolving course of our human lives.
