In a nutshell

Accroche
GEO is a 4-metre illuminated sphere which comes into its own when you start walking around it.
Contenu

Imagine if the infinitely big and infinitely small met in the same sphere. Illuminated by 29,000 dots of light, GEO is a huge orb standing 5.5 metres tall and measuring roughly 4 metres in diameter. It rotates slowly according to the same mechanical principle as a world globe on a stand, the ever-changing perception bringing it to life.


Your experience changes depending on where you are standing: from close-up your eyes are drawn to this 3-dimensional ball of light. You can walk all the way around it as you listen to an electronic soundtrack on a four-minute loop composed by Sophie Griffon. If you take a step back, you see forms appear and take shape in the sphere.
