Using lamps, the Mouawad Laurier collective—comprising artists Maya Mouawad and Cyril Laurier—brings the shadows of the ocean onto land. Through their tour across several coastal cities, the goal is to create an immersive virtual reality (VR) experience and a short documentary film, designed to help the public relive the beauty of our seas and oceans while raising awareness about the critical challenges they currently face.
Maya Mouawad is a French artist and engineer based in Barcelona. She creates immersive installations that blend digital art, light, and interactive technologies, with a particular focus on ecology and the relationship between humans and nature.
Cyril Laurier is a French composer and sound artist specializing in artificial intelligence and machine learning applied to music. He creates soundscapes and interactive installations that explore the connections between music, technology, and living systems.
