La magie opéra

The viewer is part of a group of extras at the Palais Garnier.
At the foot of the grand staircase, he crosses paths with Céleste, a young opera singer about to flee the stage. Nervous and unsure, she confides her doubts and dreams to him — torn between the weight of tradition and the desire to find her own voice. Freshly arrived from the provinces, this rising star is about to make her debut in a leading role, but her confidence is shaken.
Drawn into her story, the user follows Céleste through the hidden corridors and majestic halls of the Opéra Garnier. As the building comes alive around her, she is transported into iconic scenes from legendary operas — each one echoing a part of her inner journey.

This project is a sensory exploration of the ties between doubt, memory and the stage. More than a tribute to opera, it offers a vivid, inner reimagining where users become Céleste’s silent partners. They journey through shifting worlds where music, design and storytelling blend into an intimate yet spectacular experience.
Each scene is a visual metaphor for Céleste’s emotions. The Palais Garnier transforms — from real stage to dreamlike realm — with mirrors and doubles revealing her turmoil and awakening.
The viewer quietly follows her through reflections of passion, fear and longing. It’s a poetic immersion into the artist’s soul, merging opera’s lyricism with immersive technology for an introspective, sensory voyage.
