It's a fairy-like dive into the aquatic world that L'Atelier des Lumières is offering us this coming autumn. From October 20, 2023, to January 7, 2024, the exhibition Oceans, The Immersive Odyssey takes us on an underwater adventure that is as marvelous as it is magical.

The immersive exhibition will reveal to us nearly 10,000 hours spent underwater during the last four decades. These photographs celebrate the barely explored marine marvels and shed light on the environmental problems that threaten our oceans.
An infinite palette of colors awaits us. More than 80% of the ocean floor remains unexplored. And yet, even with the little we already know, we are in for a treat. From tropical to temperate to Arctic seas, Brian Skerry's photographs take us on a journey through the mysteries and wonders of the underwater world.

Colorful fish, coral reefs,Sea turtles, majestic orcas, intimidating sharks, playful dolphins, polar seals, microscopic crustaceans... It's a breath of fresh air that reveals the beauty and fragility of our oceans.
