SPACE OUT

Guided by curator Marie Fraser, students in the course “Organising an exhibit” offered by the Art History Department of the Université du Québec à Montréal, invited visual artists, choreographers, dancers and musicians to be part of De Studio’s — Lynda Gaudreau’s experimental studio — opening.

To be “spaced out”, to be disoriented, not connected, lost.

SPACE OUT offers an immersive experience where dance, installation, sculpture and soundscape mingle in a vaporous environment. Fed by reminiscence, the visitor is invited to wander in the space and to create his or her own dialogue with the works. Playing on notions of appearing and disappearing, the exhibit is a complete and organic universe, echoing the human body.
