▪️  Installation iDzia : Sound, Light

The Mucem in Marseille recently opened the exhibition “Laure Prouvost – Au fort, les âmes sont”,

a poetic immersion into the dreamlike world of video artist Laure Prouvost. On display from 2 April to 28 September 2025, the exhibition invites visitors on a sensory journey through monumental, previously unseen installations presented in areas of Fort Saint-Jean that are usually inaccessible to the public. The artist brings together objects, sculptures and underwater videos to celebrate the fluidity of life, human connections and natural transformations.

To mark the exhibition’s opening on 2 April, the Mucem organised a series of free events, offering the public an immersive introduction to the artist’s work. Musical interludes, creative workshops and performances brought Fort Saint-Jean to life, while a children’s choir performed bird songs arranged by Sylvie Paz and Mika Fernandez.

To deliver the best possible visitor experience, the Mucem called on iDzia to design and implement the sound and lighting installations. The iDzia team deployed a bespoke technical setup combining video projections, scenographic lighting and a high-fidelity sound system. The aim was to enhance Laure Prouvost’s works while respecting the architecture of the fort. This collaboration created an immersive atmosphere, deepening the exhibition’s emotional impact and offering visitors a complete sensory experience.

This project continues the partnership between the Mucem and iDzia, who also worked together on the sound and lighting installations for Laure Prouvost’s exhibition “Mère We Sea” at the Vieille Charité in Marseille. In both projects, iDzia combined technical expertise with artistic sensitivity to showcase the artist’s work and enrich the visitor experience.

Through these projects, iDzia reaffirms its role in bringing cultural heritage and contemporary art to life, delivering innovative technical solutions that support artistic storytelling and encourage audiences to engage fully with the experience.
