Moment Factory's New Creation: Jean Paul Gaultier in Paris, the Public as a Muse!

Working closely with the curators at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the onsite team at the Grand Palais, we developed a concept to animate the Escalier des arts, a staircase located in between the first and second floors of the museum. Inspired by Gaultier's open-minded approach to models from all walks of life, and the notion of the fashion catwalk, the Escalier des arts becomes the Staircase of the Muses. Contrasting the classic baroque lines of the undulating staircase with bold imagery reminiscent of Gaultier's in-your-face approach to haute couture, the installation invites the public to make their mark on the catwalk.

The illuminated stairs beckon the camera flashes simulate the frenzied atmosphere of a fashion show. Once at the top of the stairs, visitors trigger a camera that takes a snapshot of their silhouette. These images then form part of a generative design, featuring Gaultier motifs and palettes. The resulting video composition is unique to each participant, and is projected on the large-scale backdrop of the stair landing. Always in flux, the projection runs continuously in real-time, remixing imagery from past visitors with new colours and motifs to form original visuals throughout the four months of the exhibition.

The is a true celebration of the public, inviting them to become part of Gaultier's festive narrative. It was an inspiration to work with the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Grand Palais in honouring the work of one of our true fashion icons.
