Praesentia

MYRIAM MIHINDOU

From 17/10/2024 to 05/01/2025

“Praesentia” (a polysemous title evoking presence, power, and protection) offers a generous unfolding of Myriam Mihindou’s work over the last twenty years, including new productions. The exhibition is particularly interested in the way in which the artist assumes the spiritual and therapeutic, as well as the social and political functions of art, through gestures, forms, and materials.

Some dominant narratives are thus re-read by their margins, making visible bodies, voices, practices, and imaginaries that have long been neglected or minoritised. This exhibition is co-conceived and co-produced with the Crac Occitanie in Sète, to ensure that the works are visible over a longer period of time, and that they are accessible to a wide range of audiences.
