Length

Production
Espace Perreault with the collaboration of Collectif Legs

Line Nault talks about the radically transformative experience of her encounter with Linda and Continuum – one that still fuels her creations and her teaching.

Continuum gave her access to the essence of the fluid, biological, unfiltered body and its vibrant sounds. It also enabled her to shed a certain image or posture of the dancing body. The contribution of the somatic becomes a place of opening and exploration for the creation itself. An enriching look back at the artist’s career, fueled by Lucie Boissinot’s thought-provoking questions, and gratefully received by Linda Rabin. (in French)
