A deep dive into the world of emotion and technology
It is not just an exhibition, nor just a vernissage. “Imagine Monet” at Artipelag is a declaration of love for art, technology and human experience. It is a place where all your senses are activated, where you become part of Monet’s masterpiece and where technology makes the impossible possible.
The exhibition explores the extraordinary experience of creators Annabelle Mauger and Julien Baron in collaboration with art historian Androula Michael, who was also behind the success of Imagine Van Gogh and Imagine Picasso. The venue for the exhibition is Artbox at Artipelag.
Behind the installation of the 50 projectors that together create this incredible experience, it is Centa’s technological geniuses who have made an unparalleled art experience possible.
A step into Monet’s world
From the moment you step into the spectacular Artbox event hall, you are no longer a spectator, you are a participant. Monet’s colors, lights and lines envelop you and you immediately feel a sensation unlike any other. It is not just the eye that is attracted; it is the heart, the mind, and the soul that are captured by this experience. You are inside Monet’s paintings, walking along his brushstrokes, feeling the pulse of his vision.
Our technological magic
Creating this lifelike dream required something extraordinary. Getting 50 projectors to work together in image and light is a technological feat that exceeds all expectations. This is where our work and expertise come in.
Getting these 50 projectors to work in perfect harmony required an unprecedented level of precision. Each projector had to be precisely calibrated to match the colors, light intensity and sharpness. A mistake in any of these parameters and the illusion would be ruined.
Our work also went beyond the purely technical aspect. There was an artistic sensitivity needed, an understanding of Monet’s work, and how best to convey it through light and shadow. We needed to demonstrate not only technological expertise, but also a deep respect and understanding of artistic expressiveness.
An immersive experience
The result is an experience that transcends traditional art viewing. It is a 60-minute journey, where you get to explore Monet’s universe, not just by seeing, but by feeling and experiencing. There is also an educational introduction that gives you insight into Monet’s world, his techniques and his innovations.
“Imagine Monet” is not only a tribute to Monet, but also a tribute to technological innovation and the technological mastery that made it possible. Our mission was to turn a technological challenge into a masterpiece, and we think we have succeeded in creating an exhibition that will be remembered as a milestone in the way we experience and interact with art. It’s an exploration, a celebration, an experience and it’s waiting for you at Artipelag.
This is the third project created by Annabelle Mauger and Julien Baron in collaboration with art historian Androula Michael. After the success of Imagine Van Gogh and Imagine Picasso, Imagine Monet is their latest production.
Art and nature intertwined
Beyond the art gallery, Artipelag also offers Stockholm’s archipelago nature and water, art and sculpture, and gastronomic delights. All this contributes to making this a place where art and nature meet in a way that cannot be found anywhere else.
