Radiant is a breathtaking 3D volumetric installation that comes to life before your eyes. It captivates with luminous organic forms and vibrant, ever-changing colours. Its high-impact dynamic patterns push the boundaries of spatial perception, creating a sense of infinity.

Radiant was created by Rob Jensen and the Radiant Team—consisting of Diana Jensen, Scott Ashkenaz, Tim O’Keefe, Deb Linton, Michael Chann, Warren Trezevant and many dedicated volunteers—and in collaboration with Serge Maheu and Init. It was produced by Zamboom LLC, Multicolore and Init, and it is powered by Creos.

By day, dichroic and holographic mirrors reflect sunlight and nearby landscapes, casting vibrant, prismatic patterns that shift with the angle of light and movement of passersby. As night falls, the sculpture comes alive with dynamic beams of light that unfold across rotating concave and convex structures. These illuminated forms merge with mirrored silhouettes of surrounding architecture, people, and nature, creating a living interplay between the artwork and its environment.

Created by Malte Kebbel and distributed by Wireframe Public Art Agency.

Composed of individual reeds that rise into the sky, Roseaux invites users to activate the base of the reeds by stepping on sensors, rhythmically propelling myriad colours up the stem. Alone or in a group, the fun and exciting race begins to give the reeds a single, solid colour. The visual parade punctuated by a vibrant soundscape in a perfect synchrony of light and sound creates an energizing sensory experience. In standby mode, gently pulsing light and sound beckon users to activate the reeds and give the space a dreamlike ambiance.

Optik was created by 1ToMn in collaboration with UDO Design and Serge Maheu, co-produced by Init and 1ToMn and is tour produced by Creos.

Impulse is a publicly-activated light and sound installation that can be played by the public to create a temporal, ever‐changing event. Impulse embodies ideas of ageless play, dynamics, and interaction to produce zones of intensity and calm.

Impulse created by Lateral Office and CS Design, with soundscape by Mitchell Akiyama

Howling to the night sky the wolf calls out for her lost cub. Singing to the celestial realm she cries where has the young one gone? Are we looking for something in someone else that we are missing in ourselves? Peer deep into the wolf's body to see if you can find what you are looking for. See yourself in the reflection of the outer skin or peer deeper into the cosmic unknown once you pierce the outer layer of reality. Walk slowly as you approach the wolf to see how your presence might change its behaviour. Come even closer and see if you can if the wolf senses your kindness. Once our hearts are beating full of love then we might find what we are truly looking for.

Created by artist Ryan Longo.

Welcome to a gentle fusion of artificial intelligence, digital imagery, and poetic expression. The Poetry Hut is a space where imagination takes form. By entering three words in response to the question “What does your dream world look like?”, visitors generate a unique poem and a surreal image that unfold across the hut’s windows—an experience shaped by their own words. On the surrounding screens, a slow animation gathers and drifts through the words left by others, forming an ever-evolving cloud of collective dreams.

Artistic Director: Bernard Duguay, Design: André Bazinet, Management & Production: Juliette van Gaalen, Programmer: Maxime Giraudeau, Maude Auberson-Lavoie, Manufacturing: André Bazinet, Jack World, Club Etabli and Sets: Club Etabli.
