DUAL
RE:SORB / Germany / 2019 / Monument mapping / 3 min 40
Showing: Bolshoi Theatre, Moscow, Russia – 19th of September 2019 (Art Vision Classic Contest)
DUAL shows a fight between light and shadow on 5 projection surfaces. In the hypnotic middle part, the audience sinks deeper into a morphing architectural environment, fitting the surrounding architecture style of Teatralnaya Square in Moscow. At the end, light and shadow come together, just like we have to integrate our dark part into our light part to allow ourselves to grow as humans.
Mother
Filip Roca, Tigrelabart / Spain / 2019 / Monument mapping / 12 min
Showing: Sharjah Police Academy, United Arab Emirates – 6th > 16th of February 2019 (Sharjah Light Festival)
Nature conceals aesthetic treasures of a mathematical beauty that can only make us feel wonder. From the infinity of galaxies to the details of human tissue, it forms patterns of great complexity from which Mother is inspired, alluding to universal laws, order and chaos.
Siderea
SUPERBIEN / France / 2019 / Immersive mapping / 4 min
Showing: Atelier des Lumières, Paris, France – 18th > 24th of October 2019 (Immersive Art Festival)

This very real gravitational anomaly, beyond what our eyes and minds could imagine, is represented within a palpable and dimensioned universe, in the course of a deeply immersive story, exploring the emotion that the discovery of such a stellar phenomenon can trigger.
Colour Symphony

Showing: De Witte Dame, Eindhoven, The Netherlands – 7th > 14th of November 2019 (GLOW Eindhoven 2019)
Eindhoven’s industrial heritage ‘De Witte Dame’ has a backside: large, strict and white. A mathematical, compelling structure with a lot of windows. A large piece of sheet music without the notes, challenging us to add that notes as coloured light and music. A true Colour Symphony with the lamp light of today. Music is Colour, Coulour is Music.
teamLab : A Forest Where Gods Live – earth music&ecology
teamLab / International / 2019 / Immersive mapping / 1 min 50
Showing: Mifuneyama Rakuen, Takeo Hot Springs, Japan – 12th of July > 4th of November 2019
teamLab’s project, Digitized Nature, explores how nature can become art. The concept of the project is that non-material digital technology can turn nature into art without harming it.
The works encourage the contemplation of the meaning of “Continuous Life” that has existed over many years in Mifuneyama Rakuen.
Regalia
Moment Factory / France / 2019 / Monument mapping / 15 min
Showing: Notre-Dame of Reims Cathedral, Reims, France – 25th of May > 22nd of September 2019

C-ACT-US is an interactive work in which the physical characteristics of the cactus are dynamically highlighted. Inspired by the concept of animism, contrasts of colour, light and movement are created through the mapping of the organic geometry of plants and their surroundings, with which the public interacts through hands gestures.
PONG
Simon Lazarus / France / 2019 / Monument mapping / 2 min 30
Showing: Jean Moulin High School, Lyon, France – 5th > 8th of December 2019 (Lyon Festival of Lights)
Here, the building becomes the theater of an alternative history of cosmogony. Written and recited by Lætitia Troussel, and sound designed by Joséphine Hurtu, the artwork narrates a cosmic romance by sampling visual codes from printmaking, minimalist painting, kinetic art and primitive video games.
Le Sacre du Tympan
Yann Nguema / France / 2019 / Monument mapping / 8 min 30
Showing: La Rochelle City Hall, France – 6th of December 2019 (Inauguration of the City Hall)
This project relies on the 6 years it took to renovate the building, a time during which it was hidden behind scaffolding. The building of a new imaginary portail in its center is used as a guiding thread through the project. A dozen of paintings follow one another, marked by strong references to marine iconography and natural elements.
