La Traversée du temps
Moët & Chandon · sound and light journey, with Fisheye · 2026 · Cave Napoléon, Moët & Chandon, Épernay
Our role Co-creation, sound, light and LEDs, scenography, installation.
A journey through time along a chalk tunnel. The visitor walks from the past towards the future: entering in the dark, crossing the echoes of the horsemen and soldiers who once passed through these cellars, discovering Napoleon’s cask at the centre, and ending in the vintage vault. Champagne as a message sent to the future.
We designed and produced the sound and light experience: a spatialisation that makes sound travel along the tunnel, whispers and invisible passages in the dark, three reveals punctuated by light and a voice-over, in a sober, elegant tone. A journey that plays on its own, continuously, for the house’s visitors.
Open to the public from 16 to 18 October 2026 in the Cave Napoléon, for Moët & Chandon’s Journées Particulières, as a counterpart to the exhibition La Vigne et le temps at Fort Chabrol.
