Let water transport you to another world

This luminous, airborne, streamlined creation is an immersive installation that generates a constantly changing atmosphere. Geometry, light and water intertwine to give viewers a unique visual and sensory experience. Comprising luminous octagons arranged on top of one another, the installation seems to float gently over the indoor fountain. Inspired by the architecture of Complexe Desjardins, the work is eco-friendly, being made from recycled and recyclable materials. Contemplating it produces a feeling of lightness that transports viewers to a world of dreams and imagination.

About Nicolas Paolozzi
Module produces works at the crossroads of architecture, design and new technologies. Created by artist-architect Nicolas Paolozzi, the agency produces sculptural, luminous, sound and interactive installations that redesign public space.

Nicolas Paolozzi designed his first artistic installations with the Collectif RDV, which he founded in 2011. Bringing together skills from different backgrounds, the project has evolved? towards a cross-disciplinary practice of architecture. In a perpetual phase of experimentation, the collective has explored the possibilities offered by image and sound through numerous projects: scenography, exhibitions, performances, ephemeral microarchitectures.

With the creation of Module in 2017, Nicolas goes a step further by developing the notion of large-scale architecture in his works. Considering space as a set of interactions, he designs hybrid structures oscillating between tangible and intangible materials. Living creatures, his installations evolve over time, offering viewers an immersive and singular experience of reality
