Ruoxi Jin — MA Félicité — Frac île-de-france, le Plateau — Exhibition — Slash Paris

In 18 days: February 14 → March 22, 2026

Through her site-specific interventions, sculptures, and semi-autobiographical and semi-fictional narratives, Ruoxi Jin weaves a family genealogy and creates a parallel world made up of truths and legends, memory and projection. Narratives about her family members and bereavements allow her to recall past lives and fragments of forgotten stories. The passage between life and death is the source of a reflection on reincarnation which, according to Ruoxi Jin, facilitates the porosity between oneself and others and reinforces empathy. Thus, a stone can become a human, a human a bee, and vice versa. Her sculptures, fragile in appearance and charged with conceptual power, become like the backdrop of a mental theater where the chronological superimposition of memories takes on a new meaning.

The exhibition is inspired by Ruoxi Jin’s encounter with her studio neighbor, Félicité, a Chinese woman who works as a master of ceremonies for Chinese weddings in Paris.
