WEB has woven its threads throughout February during the Copenhagen Light Festival Blending minimal materials with large-scale impact, WEB transforms simplicity into spectacle about the internet. This network that connects us has reshaped our relationship to the world. WEB reveals its ambivalence: captivating yet potentially perilous. Have we woven a web that unites us or one that holds us captive?
When light meets architecture: LINES OF CONSTRUCTION reveals the geometric forms and proportions that guided the design of a building. Behind every enduring construction lies a foundation of sketches lines drawn in pursuit of balance, harmony, and structural clarity. This laser show brings that creative process back into focus, redrawing the foundational strokes that shape architecture. The white, precise beams evoke the language of technical drawing. In motion, they reveal the hidden logic of the building, trace geometric patterns aligned with its structure, and invite multiple layers of interpretation

Organ stood at the foot of Linköping Cathedral in Sweden throughout November, echoing the building’s architectural lines with finesse and poetry.
Organ reimagines the grandeur of the instrument as a sculptural body of light. Rising from the ground, elongated tubes recall the organ’s pipes, their radiant surfaces stretching skyward in a gesture of ascension. The installation becomes both instrument and architecture, an illuminated presence that commands attention with its vertical rhythm. Through carefully choreographed sequences of light and sound, Organ unfolds like a living composition, immersing visitors in an atmosphere at once solemn and magnetic. More than an object, it is an experience, a luminous organ whose voice resonates through space and within the viewer.
Nicolas Paolozzi’s web installation was in Zurich from November 19 to December 7, as part of the Zauberpark festival, which offers the public an international music and arts program over several weeks.
Web expands into space as a vast net, suspended above the ground like an otherworldly spider’s creation. Cords stretch from a central spine and anchor to the landscape, forming a fragile yet commanding volume. Laser light fractures into countless luminous points, racing along the threads like signals through an invisible network. Blending minimal materials with large-scale impact, the work transforms simplicity into spectacle. This network that connects us has reshaped our relationship to the world. WEB reveals its ambivalence: captivating yet potentially perilous. Have we woven a web that unites us or one that holds us captive?
As part of the Lumino festival organized by the Partenariat du Quartier des Spectacles in Montreal, Nicolas Paolozzi created the in situ work Vortex. 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.
Exhibited from January to June 2025

On the occasion of Lueurs de Mantes light festival, artist Nicolas Paolozzi made an in situ adaptation of his audiovisual work Organ, in the stunning church of Mantes-la-Jolie.
At the crossroads of light and sound, Organ interacts with the architecture of the space, revealing and enhancing its beauty. Composed of LED tube panels and accompanied by a laser projection, it highlights the lines and volumes of the environment, transforming the structure into a true visual composition.
In sync with an enchanting musical score, the interplay of lights follows the rhythm with precision, heightening the intensity of the sensory experience. This immersive interaction creates a large-scale spectacle where light becomes an instrument and architecture, a vibrant stage of emotions.
Both lightweight and refined, Organ seamlessly blends into its surroundings, offering a poetic and majestic reinterpretation of the space. Its minimalist technical setup allows for a flexible and adaptable implementation while delivering a monumental and immersive experience.

After a two weeks at Vincennes castle, Lotus joined the program of the Pléiades festival in Saint-Etienne, an event at the crossroads of art, science and technology. Visual and sound experiences, monumental or intimate, the artistic program presented invited the public to immerse themselves in a sensitive, poetic and symbolic universe.
Lotus is a floral landscape that unfolds in space, inviting spectators to wander freely. Light from the plant’s structure is diffused by its large leaves, creating a relaxing, evolving atmosphere. The Lotus flower, a positive symbol of renewal and spirituality, invites the viewer to engage in an individual or collective meditative experience. The dimensions of the work invert the relationship of scale: here, man is the size of an insect immersed in immense nature.
When digital art meets heritage: Lotus was at Vincennes castle this October, next to Paris.

UNITY was at Electropicales festival from October 4 to 13th, 2024
A thin and fragile structure to explore the concept of the links that shape our environment, forming a harmonious whole. The installation is suspended in space and seems to float like an abstract representation of a whole: equilibrated and elusive.
On June 14 and 15, the emblematic Lotus by artist Nicolas Paolozzi were presented at Gau Zuria Bilbao (White Night in Basque). Installed in the Euskalduna estanque, their petals of light were reflected in the water as the tide rose, creating a soothing, relaxing atmosphere.
