Living connections is a unique multidisciplinary project that will turn Jacques Cartier Bridge into an interactive art piece and a next-generation symbol for Montreal.
The bridge will be illuminated to celebrate the city’s 375th anniversary and Canada 150th anniversary.
The artistic concept is created and developed by Moment Factory in collaboration with six Montreal multimedia and lighting studios including Réalisations inc. that supports the realtime data collection which will fuel the creative component of the project. The collected information is a living portrait of the metropolis, Moment Factory will use it for artistic purposes to illuminate the bridge and to give us the opportunity to rediscover this architectural gem that is Montreal’s pride since its inauguration in 1930.
