After three editions celebrating the iconic monumental flowers, the Contemplations show is reinventing itself for 2025. Gone are the floral mirror balls, replaced by a new visual journey, an immersive mapping inspired by the lush and colorful world of Alain Thomas. A major Naïve-Primitive artist from Nantes, Alain Thomas invites us to immerse ourselves in his lush landscapes, where nature flourishes in an explosion of shapes and colors.

This luminous and tropical creation will adorn Bayeux Cathedral with a fresco animated by plant and animal elements, brought to life by the expertise of Les Spectaculaires and their Allumeurs d’Images. This year, the projections will rise to the monument's spire, before descending to the chevet, enhancing every curve and detail of the building's architecture.

Already applauded in Brussels by over 300,000 spectators, this new version promises to amaze, blending dream and nature in perfect harmony. The show will open its doors on July 8, for two consecutive evenings, in celebration of the start of the Tour de France in Bayeux, thus offering a renewed visual experience, both technical and poetic, where light becomes a storyteller and the cathedral a living canvas.

 

From 8 July to 30 August + 9 July
Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays - At nightfall
