Based on an ethnographic approach to the daily life of women artists, this article explores the use of the mobile methodology to understand the experience of time and space in the context of the transformations of work and the contemporary urban experience. It is intended to shed light on the tensions and strategies of working mothers in the artistic sector when they have to reconcile their productive, reproductive, and leisure time in the city of Santiago de Chile. Multisite fieldwork was conducted for this research during 2018 and 2019, with a mobile methodology of monitoring the activities and daily movements of the study participants. This involved moving with them through the various public and private contexts of their personal and working lives. I conclude, based on the analyses that women artists make a permanent effort to organize a routine in which the times and spaces of art, leisure, and motherhood are inevitably interpenetrated. Gender inequality impacts not only on the overburdened work-life balance of the double day, but also the quality of their leisure time and their creative work. The use of a mobile methodology allowed me to capture in situ this daily time management, and the gendered costs of coping with a lifestyle marked by temporal overlapping and daily mobility in the city. With these theoretical and methodological choices, the article contributes to discussions on the value of mobile methodology and renewed uses of ethnography by distancing itself from traditional approaches to social research, which tend to construct their objects of study and approach actors in fixed contexts within the city.
