The mesmerizing immersive experience will include installations of different scale using light, sound and technology with Monad as the centre piece overlooking MediaCity’s iconic Piazza.
Monad showstopper piece: The giant projection-based artwork by Anastasia Isachsen consists of a huge, spectacular video projection using a mist of water as a screen, accompanied by a deeply emotional musical composition by the renowned jazz composer Arve Henriksen.
