Project Native Informant is delighted to present Time Well Spent, a debut solo exhibition with artist My-Lan Hoang-Thuy. My-Lan works through processes of accumulation, assemblage, painting, and photography to reconfigure past fragments into new compositions. Paint and pigment are layered, peeled, cut and reassembled, mimicking the way memory is built, eroded and reconfigured over time. Tactile, structural works form a palimpsest-like quality, hovering between memory and abstraction. My Lan's installations appear as visual timelines, alongside an archive of photographs that chronicle daily life, mapping the sedimentary remnants of perpetual becoming.

Recent exhibitions include Vestige (Group Show), Project Native Informant, London (2024); Notes, Galerie Mitterrand, Paris (2024); I Hit You With a Flower, Stedelijk Museum, Schiedam (2024); Femme Actuelle, Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris (2023); Boys Band, Christie’s, Paris (2023). Her work has been shown at Centre Pompidou, Paris; FRAC Grand Large Hauts-de-France, Dunkerque; Musée d’Art Moderne de Saint-Étienne, among others, and is held in the collections of FRAC Champagne-Ardenne, FRAC Auvergne, and FRAC Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

My-Lan Hoang-Thuy (b. 1990, Bourg-la-Reine, France) lives and works in Paris, France.
