Habitacle, an identity and body tune-up, an intimate rite for a pickup truck. Hazards on, fast and furious healing for a failing body. Sediments of memory to unbury from asphalt and ashes. A lapsed global justice activist gone cyborg. Me, steel, Dom Toretto, one engine. Stay close! We drift together. Nobody moves alone.

This event will take place at a secret location, which will be revealed to ticket holders via email 48 hours in advance.
Working across performance, screendance, singing, dance, theatre, and clowning, Stéphanie’s practice centers the body as an artistic medium and is rooted in sensations she hopes will be contagious. Serious about not taking herself too seriously, endlessly curious and eager for new challenges, she has recently added rap and installation art to her explorations.
Stéphanie has a deep affection for collective practices. She is a proud member of Lutte à l’Est, a regional queer feminist league; Les Matantes à bouche, a feminist theatrical singing group; and UTIL, a community arts organization. She also collaborates on numerous projects with artists, collectives, and organizations, including Pogo & Cheez Lyz, Vuinbrekin, and Tour de Bras, among others. In addition, she supports musical groups in the development of their stage work and accompanies humans in their discovery of cold-water swimming.
Driven by the conviction that our bodies, hearts, and relationships are spaces where rigidifying social sediments accumulate, she continues to explore un-sedimentation through multiple artistic and somatic approaches. Habitacle may be, for her, the beginning of a love affair with car bodies.
