Kit Mobile: femme avec bagages magiques

[2007, performance-installation]

Kit Mobile: femme avec bagages magiques (Mobile Kit: woman with magic luggage) introduces us to the universe of a traveler whose appearance reflects her passage through different eras. This woman’s luggage is filled with accessories and an integrated technological device allowing her to create small interactive installations on her way.

This project represents a technical and artistic challenge for Line Nault. Sole performer and technician, she sets up her traveling technological museum-theater in official or improvised contexts to share her vision as a bohemian of contemporary art.

Capsules

The project is composed of several capsules which are independent works demonstrating a particular way of approaching the body, representation and technology. These capsules are created with a digital instrument integrated into suitcases. It is therefore a portable and autonomous work.

The capsules are modular and their duration is indefinite. Line Nault can choose to interpret one or more at a time depending on the presentation context.

CREDITS

Kit Mobile: femme avec bagages magiques was made possible through the financial support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
