18th Biennale de Lyon

Laure Prouvost | Hovering Caress Amère

19.09.–13.12.2026

From the 19 September to 13 December 2026, an immersive installation by Laure Prouvost will be presented at the 18th Biennale de Lyon.

The intertwining of narrative, language and sensory experience lies at the core of Laure Prouvost’s practice. Her works draw viewers in through inventive narrative strategies marked by wit, wordplay, and unexpected associations. They open passages to alternative temporalities and spaces, prompting shifts in perspective through which questions of kinship, migration, climate change, and interspecies relations are reconfigured.
