Skillfully combining music, sound effects, scenography and projection, Beyond Monet reveals the poetic, playful and dreamlike potential of his work. Beyond Monet, Canada’s largest immersive art experience is now open at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
The exhibit is 50,000 square feet with over 1-million cubic feet of space, making it the largest immersive experience in the country.
The experience is brought to life by Mathieu St-Arnaud and Félix Fradet-Faguy, and their creative team at Normal Studio. Jean-Sébastien Coté is the composer of the original score that accompanies the immersive experience.
Beyond Monet is an experience that audiences from all ages will enjoy. At the exhibit, guests will see the panels of biographical information and explanations of the major elements of his work. Inside the Beyond Monet: Immersive Experience, guests will enter an all-new designed space showing the artists’ bright and colorful body of work.
The exhibit’s oval-shaped rooms were to mirror the floor plan in the Musée de l’Orangerie in Paris, which was specifically designed for Monet. As the paintings ebb and flow into each other, guests will be engulfed in a three-dimensional experience of the paintings—allowing guests to, not only observe his genius, but become a part of the paintings.
Monet’s art comes to life, appearing and disappearing, heightening guests’ senses and allowing them to become one with his spirited brush strokes. There will be more than 400 artworks including the classics such as “Water Lilies,” Impression: Sunrise” and Poppies.”
