PROJECT

Gary

A crooner haunted by his ghosts, Gary evolves with his female musicians in a cinemascope crossed through by Sinatra, Hitchcock and Alain Resnais, living and losing his way in a permanent playback of images and sounds. A crazy odyssey in a mental jukebox.

Nadia Schnock

1973 ◊ BE

Nadia Schnock graduated from Brussels’ Fine Arts Academy. Since then, she has been exploring the “performative object” in visual arts. Since 1997, she has regularly been invited to present her work in numerous galleries.

Her interest in performance has led to her to collaborate with dance and theatre makers. She has worked on the set-design and the dramaturgy of numerous productions, including Starfish position by Carlos Pez, Supernatural by Alix Eynaudi, Beyond Mary and Joseph and Missing Link by Lilia Mestre or Inner horizons by Yukiko Nakamura. She has also directed Thomas Plischke’s (RE)sort and Davis Freeman’s Transit.

Gary, her latest piece, was coproduced by Les Halles de Schaerbeek in Brussels, and BUDA art centre in Kortrijk (Belgium).
