Iceberg

LUMINOTHERAPY IS NOW OVER. COME BACK IN DECEMBER 2013 TO SEE THE NEW creation IN THE QUARTIER DES SPECTACLES

December 6 to February 3
In Place des Festivals and in the Esplanade at Place des Arts

Iceberg is a playful immersive work that tells the story of an iceberg, from its calving into Arctic waters to its final melting near a southern shore. Iceberg consists of a series of illuminated metallic arches that each produce a particular sound. Arranged as a tunnel, the arches beckon visitors to enter, listen to and play this giant organ, whose notes and light travel from end to end of the musical corridor. Human activity “warms up” these ice monuments and transforms their original nature into a visual and auditory symphony.

CREATED BY ATOMIC3 AND APPAREIL ARCHITECTURE IN COLLABORATION WITH JEAN-SÉBASTIEN CÔTÉ AND PHILIPPE JEAN
