You, My, Omma, Mama

You, My, Omma, Mama

Laure Prouvost / Belgium, France & Austria / 2024 / World Premiere / 15 min

The Turner Prize-winning artist's new video work is a feminist ritual held in a cave in Marseille.

Women of different ages and backgrounds meet in the mountainous landscape outside Marseille. In a cave overlooking the land, they gather to perform a ritual of thanksgiving addressed to their own mothers. Turner Prize-winning artist Laure Prouvost (who had a major exhibition at Kunsthal Charlottenborg during CPH:DOX 2021) works in a range of media and formats, and her short video works live both in an installation context and as independent beings on the cinema screen. ‘You, My, Omma, Mama’ is a feminist tribute to motherhood and sisterhood from one of the most singular of contemporary artists.
