FEATURED ARTISTS & SCULPTURES

Antonin Fourneau | Waterlight Graffiti

Waterlight Graffiti is an interactive light art installation that allows people to draw or write using water. When water touches the surface of the panel, it activates the embedded LEDs, creating a glowing, ephemeral artwork that fades as the water evaporates, leaving no permanent mark. This project not only encourages creative expression and public participation by using water as a harmless and renewable medium, but it also transforms public spaces into dynamic art galleries where anyone can contribute, reshaping how people interact with urban environments.

Leslie Epsztein & Camille Gross | Elementa

Elementa is a projection mapping artwork that is a dreamlike fresco exploring the four fundamental elements of cosmogony—Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. This artwork is inspired by ancient myths and brings each element to life through the Greco-Roman figures. These two French artists will dazzle your visual senses with their stunning artwork.

TILT | Lampounette

This creation from TILT is an inspired version of the famous architect's lamp that is part of our collective heritage. Lampounette is an adoring nod to this familiar object. This beautiful and playful illuminated sculpture offers an oversized image found out in nature that delights the eyes with its large, warm beam.

TILT | Peonies

A delicate, distinguished flower, the peony gracefully stretches out in a bouquet of three flowers, their finely cut white petals exposed to the sun. As night falls, these giant flowers light up with a thousand reflections, revealing a dazzling palette of varied, ever-changing hues. The plant's stems are also highlighted by animated lighting, inviting visitors to sit around the flowers to enjoy the view and the colorful ambience.
