A collective experience at the heart of Montréal

From October 16, 2025 to March 31, 2026, Vulnerable installs itself in large format on the wall of the Maison Symphonique de Montréal, on Place des Arts.
Projected outdoors, freely open to all, the work invites the public to interact freely over several months. It is a unique opportunity to transform, together, the facade of an iconic location into a space of reflection, play and shared empathy.

What is the reach of our actions?

Vulnerable is an interactive installation that transforms our movements into visual poetry. Facing a gallery of human silhouettes, each gesture becomes a language: brutality distorts and wounds, gentleness repairs and illuminates. A simple and intuitive experience, but one that reveals the depth of our impact on one another.

Conceived as a meeting between digital art and collective consciousness, the work places each spectator at the heart of a cycle of transformation. The projected characters — inclusive, fragile and luminous — react uniquely to our gestures. Each interaction is singular, ephemeral, unpredictable… like life itself.

Pensée pour voyager et s’adapter à différents lieux, Vulnérable déploie sa puissance aussi bien dans une galerie que sur une façade urbaine. Son langage est universel : il parle à l’enfant qui joue, à l’adulte qui s’interroge, à la foule qui se rassemble.

A work that reaches out to its youth

Alongside its presentation at Place des Arts, Vulnerable will embark on a tour of Montréal schools, in dialogue with the World Press Photo exhibition.
By going directly to meet the public, the installation will offer students a sensitive space to reflect on violence, bullying and kindness through gesture.
An invitation that is both artistic and social: to learn to recognize fragility, to understand it, to transform it into strength.

A work produced by 4D ART and presented with the support of Montréal en histoires, La Place des Arts, La Maison Symphonique, Le Quartier des spectacles, Normal studio, Élévation, BHVR interactif, le CALQ, CAM and CAC.
