The MEP Studio presents the first solo exhibition in a French institution by Diane Severin Nguyen, an artist renowned internationally for her work in both photography and video that interrogates questions of instability and materiality in relation to the body.
Diane Severin Nguyen’s photographs invites us to immerse ourselves in the question of the meanings and significance of the material world. In ephemeral compositions, the artist combines synthetic objects (chains, textiles…) with organic substances (hair, fruit…), at times adding liquids or combustible materials with loaded political associations such as napalm. The tension created between these substances gives rise to exchanges – of fluids, materials, movements – of which her photographic works remain the sole visual evidence.
