Chances are you’ll never have seen a cultural attraction like this before.
Carrières de Lumières is an audiovisual experience set in the vast, cathedral-like galleries of a former limestone quarry.
Some 100 ultra -HD projectors project images totalling 6000 square metres onto the pristine sheer walls and accompany them with music and ambient sound.
Even the ground is completely covered, and like the walls the patterns are in constant motion.
The theme changes by the year, but is always art-related.
Past shows have projected the works of Pablo Picasso, Paul Cézanne, Vincent van Gogh and Marc Chagall.
