SYNERGIES (GRÉGORY LASSERRE & ANAÏS MET DEN ANCXT) Synergies is an interactive, collective and performative digital artwork installation renewing the approach of the video mapping. The artwork’s software enables creating in real time infinite narrative scenes by manipulating “video elements“ created in real time with the spectators.

URBAN LIGHT CONTACTS (GRÉGORY LASSERRE & ANAÏS MET DEN ANCXT) Urban Lights Contacts is an interactive artwork with an important social dimension. This artwork brings together the spectators around an artistic experience. It creates unpredictable and positive relationships between the spectators. It transforms the visitors into sonorous humans and questions in a poetic, sonorous and luminous way our perception of the other. This installation offers a social, sensory and symbolic dimension, with a sensitive and emotional implication of the audience.

BROKEN PORTAL Broken Portal’ is an enchanting art installation that invites viewers to embark on a journey into the cosmos. This captivating piece combines the rigidity of steel square pipe tubing with the ethereal allure of LED strips to form a 3D extruded triangle. The concept behind ‘The Portal’ is akin to gazing at a starry night sky. As we stand in its presence, shrouded in darkness, our attention is immediately drawn to the mesmerizing LED lights adorning each pipe. Like distant stars, they twinkle and beckon, creating an irresistible pull that draws the viewer closer.

THE DOORS(S) (BIG ART) What does a door mean to you? Does it evoke feelings of opportunity or anxiety? How did a door become such a metaphor for success, failure, opportunity, family, home, change, transition, and so many other moments of emotional connection? This project explores the greater meaning of a door, and its ability to change our path in life when we have the courage to open it. Over 200 custom experiences await with every open.
