A unique architectural projection mapping show for Saint-Jean’s Cathedral, inviting the audience of Lyon’s Light Festival to gather around an artistic work evoking the birth of the world.

Light Festival at Cathédrale Saint-Jean

Lyon, France

With innovative techniques harnessing generative algorithms and utilizing the architectural features of the cathedral facade, GENESIS poetically narrates the origin of our universe, from the creation of stars to the emergence of life.

By staging the dawn of humanity, the show encourages us to reflect on our place in a world grappling with its uncertain future.
