The works shown in the exhibition Between Reflections and Immersion at Cercle Cité were presented in a world premiere at the 81st Venice Biennale in 2024, in the Venice Immersive section. The exhibition invites the public to dive into two distinct yet deeply complementary artistic universes. Through the immersive experiences Ceci est mon cœur and Oto's Planet, visitors are guided on an exploration of self and the world, where technology and creativity unite to push the boundaries of perception and emotion. The title, Between Reflections and Immersion, reflects the delicate balance these two works establish between introspection and sensory wonder. It suggests a movement between the intimate inner experience and total engagement in environments that challenge our relationship to reality and emotions.

Ceci est mon cœur is a sensory and auditory work that explores an extraordinary love story, that of a child's reconciliation with their body. Wrapped in a connected garment embellished with luminous embroidery, the work captures the participant's heartbeat and translates it into a real-time evolving visual and sound experience. This unique interaction between the body and the artistic environment creates a deep link between physiology and aesthetics.

Oto's Planet, winner of the Special Jury Prize at the 81st Mostra di Venezia in the Venice Immersive section as well as the Best Immersive Work Prize at the Geneva International Film Festival and the Beyond the Frame Festival in Tokyo, is a virtual reality adventure that transports the spectator into a world vibrant with imagination and interactivity. This work follows the character Oto and his dog Skippy in their daily life on a mysterious planet until an alien unexpectedly emerges, disrupting their peaceful life.

These two works, although unique in their approach, unite to form a complete experience where the spectator is invited both to lose themselves in an immersive universe and to find themselves in an introspective space. The exhibition's title takes on its full meaning in this duality: Ceci est mon cœur invites an intimate reflection on our own humanity, while Oto's Planet opens a window to the outside, exploring the complexities of the encounter with the unknown.

This exhibition is organized by Cercle Cité as part of the Immersive Pavilion of the Luxembourg City Film Festival, in close collaboration with the commissioners Film Fund Luxembourg and PHI Montreal. Since 2016, the pavilion has annually featured a selection of innovative immersive works, using virtual and augmented reality, recognized and awarded internationally. These works compete for the "Best Immersive Experience" prize of the Luxembourg City Film Festival.
