PICA celebrates the opening of its first exhibition season for 2025 with an afternoon of talks and discussion focusing on two exhibitions, Laure Prouvost’s Oui Move in You and In her Footsteps: A Tribute to Matrilineal Legacy.
Oui Move In You is a major solo exhibition by Turner Award-winning, French artist Laure Prouvost. 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. These legacies are carried into In Her Footsteps: A Tribute to Matilineal Legacies, a group exhibition featuring the work of seven Australian artists who pay homage to the women who have shaped their lives—grandmothers, mothers, artistic matriarchs, leaders, ancestors and forebears.
Join Guest Curator Annika Kristensen as she guides you through a tour of Laure Provost’s exhibition. Following the tour, artists featured in In Her Footsteps, Zali Morgan, Tom Freeman and Lauren Burrow will discuss their work in more detail in a panel facilitated by Clothilde Bullen.
