From June 10 to July 12, 2026, Winnie Mo Rielly takes over MEP Studio with an immersive installation where the body fragments, shifts, and reassembles. The artist offers a sensory experience that blurs familiar landmarks and invites us to inhabit space differently.
“My new protruding spine is so beautiful. For the first time, I understand what it means to love your body.” Mariana Enriquez, Un lieu ensoleillé pour personnes sombres, 2025, Éditions du Sous-sol A Paris-based artist, Winnie Mo Rielly (born in London in 1993) develops a practice at the crossroads of photography, sculpture, and performance. She is interested in inhabited space and presences in transformation, exploring forms of closeness that she turns into experiences of intimacy. In her studio, she captures traces of her own body in motion. She uses these images as material, applying them to organically shaped structures. These objects, akin to sculptural stretchers, extend gestures and alter the perception of volume. Presence never appears in full: it is suggested through clues, following a logic of echoes. For her first solo exhibition in a Paris museum institution, Winnie Mo Rielly has conceived an installation bringing together recent works and new productions. She takes over MEP Studio as a total environment that resists any immediate reading and acts as a counter-space. Like a theater set, the familiar becomes slightly strange. The works coexist in a calm tension. The exhibition offers an experience of recomposition, where the gaze moves through the space and discovers an expanded body, extending into space, matter, and image.
Price: From 0 to 14 euros.
