The call for projects ‘Digital creations in public spaces’ is intended for national and international artists to produce an original artwork using or questioning digital practices that are thought and written for the public space.
Artists are invited to submit projects that fit into one of the following typologies:
- any creation in the form of shows, performances and hybrid interventions in public spaces, in collaboration with partner Lieux Publics
- installation projects, lighting installations, mapping, augmented reality tours, etc., in collaboration with partners the Constellations Festival in Metz and La Fête des Lumières in Lyon
The winning artworks of this call for projects will be presented as part of the opening of the Biennial of Digital Imaginaries and on partner events, particularly the Fête des Lumières in December 2026.
Works in different forms are eligible, such as:
- Hybrid show, performance and intervention
- Immersive, interactive installation
- Light creation
- Video mapping
- Augmented reality tour
- Sound creation
The amount of financial support will be decided on the basis of the budget presented by the line producer. This contribution includes the transfer of the work for its distribution, and the artist’s mobilisation for set-up and dismantling time if necessary. Depending on the needs of the project, some of the platform’s partners offer support for one or more residencies. The organisers will also provide support during the writing and production phases, connect with specialised technicians, and help in touring in regional, national and international networks.
