Flight Case is a performance centered around a transport cart, which air hostesses Elise Ehry and Kitty Maria will interact with. The cart, initially appearing as a closed case, is moved by the attendants before being transformed into a podium. This podium is made accessible by unfolding stairs. During the performance, the cart-podium will be connected to the sound system, transforming it into an electronic musical instrument.

Duration : 20 minutes
Material: plywood, ceramic profiles and handles, flight case accessories, Benjolin V2 modular synthetiser, wheels, patch cables.
Ceramic bretzel flûtes and clarinette

This cart-podium playfully reinterprets the industrial codes of the flight case in a handcrafted manner.
