Paul Mpagi Sepuya: POSITIONER at Vielmetter Los Angeles features new photographs exploring studio mechanics, perception, and the role of the photographer. Using tools like mirrors, tripods, and gazing balls, Sepuya highlights the act of image-making itself. His compositions question power dynamics, center Queer bodies, and emphasize collaboration. Through reflections and negatives, Sepuya reveals the physical and conceptual structures shaping his intimate, precisely constructed portraits.
