MOONGARDEN

“The power to bring your events to life”.

The little story that became big!

Since its creation in 2012 for the ‘Luminothérapie’ event in Montreal, moonGARDEN has toured the world, from Lyon’s Fête des Lumières to Brussels, Jerusalem, Moscow, Washington, Mexico City, Medellin, Houston and Beijing. Already seen by more than a million people, it is without doubt an invitation to dream.

Its appearance is inspired by set theory, a branch of mathematics that illustrates the notions of sets and belonging. For us, moonGARDEN is the ideal metaphor for a more inclusive world.

Multiple uses...

These majestic spheres not only host delicate shadow theatres. They also host interactive applications, video and sound content to create an entirely new storytelling experience.

Thanks to these qualities, the spheres have quickly become natural urban screens embodying a narrative play space ready for public participation…

Our moonGARDEN in the world

@ Mont-Tremblant

Espace public, 2021

Commissioned by the Ville de Mont-Tremblant, the exhibition Jardin céleste, a moonGARDEN made up of 5 spheres, has created a wonderful little village in the Espace public de Mont-Tremblant, home to amazing, friendly creatures you never knew existed…

@ Athènes

Centre culturel Stravios Niarchos Foundation, 2020

Lucion’s first installation in Greece, this moonGARDEN was created in collaboration with studio Wireframe.

The spheres were exhibited in Athens for the 2020 festive season. The light installations created a magical, festive atmosphere for the public.

@ Houston

Discovery green park & Avenida, 2019

This moonGARDEN sets the scene for the discovery of this narrative journey, both playful and contemplative.

It retraces the great moments of the city of Houston since its creation: the first heart transplant, its favourite music groups, its skyline…

@ Moscou

Festival of Lights, 2015

This light installation with original music was a very special occasion to toast the end of 2015 and welcome the new year.

Its enchanted forest theme, freely inspired by native tales and legends, took shape through shadow theatres.

@ Medellin

Boulevard Tsvetnoy, 2015

This moonGARDEN called ‘Cocoons’ is a light installation with original music, made up of shadow theatres, mobiles and lighting lamps. Its theme highlighted the technological and cultural evolution of Medellín.

@ Jérusalem

Festival light, 2013

This artistic light and sound installation was illustrated by shadow theatres and highlighted the idea of forest spirits. The installation was enhanced by flying light flies designed and installed by partner company Porté par le vent.

@ Mérida

Festival international des lumières (FILUX), 2013

Inside this moonGARDEN, you could find a child flying out of the window using balloons to reach the imaginary world of an enchanted forest where colours and fantastic animals meet.

@ Bruxelles

Place Poëlaert, 2012

Commissioned by the famous champagne brand Laurent-Perrier, and complementing the end-of-year illuminations, moonGARDEN is taking on the sweet name of ‘Bül à Bruxelles’ for the occasion.

@ Lyon

Festival des lumières, 2012

In the installation ‘Les Volières’, virtual birds lived inside the spheres. Some were installed on the ground, others perched in trees.

An additional spell is added by a soundtrack made up of music and effects supporting a rich female voice reproducing bird songs and cries.

@ Montréal

Montréal en lumière, 2012

Strictly speaking, ‘Polar Spheres’ is not a moonGARDEN. Rather, it’s its ancestor.

3 families of gigantic spheres, 3 different experiences and a common theme: winter.
