Artist interview with Laure Prouvost as part of Oui Move In You

Watch our artist interview with Laure Prouvost, discussing her major solo exhibition Oui Move In You showing at ACCA until 10 June 2024.

Encompassing new commissions and a survey of existing work over the past decade, Oui Move In You transforms ACCA’s unique architecture into a labyrinthine and other-worldly environment, introducing Australian audiences to the imaginative, absorbing and frequently absurdist hallmarks of Prouvost’s diverse artistic practice.
