Practice and reception
Rey’s practice investigates questions of identity, subjectivity, and the body through photography, installation, and performance, often employing fragmentation and performative strategies to explore embodied and relational experience. Her exhibition MOTHERGROUND (2024), presented at the Winnipeg Art Gallery and later at Museum London, examines motherhood as a form of creative and material labour, incorporating collaborative and process-based approaches. Critical responses to the exhibition have emphasized its experimental structure and thematic focus. Writing in Galleries West, Alison Gillmor described the work as “ambitious” and “experimental,” noting its engagement with the complexities of maternal experience. In the Winnipeg Free Press, Jen Zoratti highlighted Rey’s use of play, unpredictability, and material experimentation in her exploration of identity and relational experience.
Collections
Her work is held in public and private collections, including Canadian institutional collections.
