Between tale and interactive sculpture, Lucia shines in the heart of cities. This dancer comes to life through the gestures of passersby, unveiling music, movement, short film, and light in a shared moment where every interaction matters.
As you approach Lucia, you encounter a luminous sculpture inviting you to participate. Cranks on each of the four sides of the installation animate this multidisciplinary artwork. Each turn of the crank sets the dancer sculpture in motion, revealing its music and light play, creating a unique choreography. Embedded frames within the structure display a short film narrating the story of this one-of-a-kind music box and the mission it carries from city to city. The piece truly comes alive when several participants join in simultaneously: movements synchronize, the music swells, and the light radiates more intensely, orchestrating a moment of collective magic where glances meet, and smiles are exchanged.

« Lucia is a meeting point of various artistic disciplines, where each element—music, sculpture, animation—transforms contemplative art into a collective experience. Through this immersive work, we aimed to invite the audience to take an active role, fully engaging in a space where art and participants mutually enrich each other, creating a living, organic connection. At the heart of the project lies an original story that guides every artistic decision. By first being moved by this narrative ourselves, we were able to imagine a work that would, in turn, touch the hearts of the audience. »
