Founded in 2000 by Bernard Duguay, Lucion designs immersive experiences for the entertainment industry, culture and public institutions. The team is composed of plastic artists, set designers, musicians, videographers, scriptwriters and interactive-media specialists.
Over the last 20 years, Lucion has succeeded in creating high artistic value content. The company has contributed to 400 productions in Canada and around the world, including light installations, architectural projections, mobile applications, stage productions, immersive environments for museums, as well as visual designs for television.
Since 2011 and the release of “Polar Spheres” in Montreal’s Quartier des Spectacles, Lucion has gained international notoriety. The large spheres, housing shadow theatres became “moonGARDEN”, an installation that has since travelled around the world (Jerusalem, Moscow, Beijing, New Orleans, Lyon, Mexico, Medellin…) and to private events in Washington, Houston, Brussels and several other cities.
This expansion opened the door to new fields of expertise in logistics, coordinating large equipment from multiple countries and managing artists.
Lucion also put on a show at the Fête des Lumières In Lyon, most recently for “Quantum” in 2018, which took home the Numix award that year.
The team also worked with Moment Factory for “Living Connections”, Jacques-Cartier Bridge illumination project. We also produced the set design and interactive visual content for progressive rock band Dream Theatre’s world tour in 2016.
Recently, Lucion put its signature on the permanent “Eye on the Future” show for China-based Yong & Li.
The installation includes a 10-meter-tall 360 sphere video set up on an island in the city of Gu’an, near Beijing. The giant sphere was accompanied by 400 smaller lighted spheres, turning the park into a sort of enchanted garden.
