Marie Reinert

Marie Reinert, an expert in the art of infiltration, explores gestures and movement in the workplace, the body as a tool and the economy as a system – these are her raw materials. Here, the space she infiltrates is the informal economy of Kinshasa, examined through the eyes of the artists: Chris Shongo, Jerry Lelo, Francis Longwa, Magloire Mpaka, Olikas Ngongo and Margot Oto, a group which celebrated the occasion by giving itself the name System K, which signifies that everything can be haggled for in Kinshasa.
