Lumonics Immersed
Light sculptures, video art projection, and music converge to relax your body and engage your mind and emotions.
Light and space artists Dorothy and Mel Tanner originated this highly-acclaimed multisensory experience in 1969, and it continues to evolve.
“For over 50 years, Lumonics has been a pioneer in light art. Founded in the 1960s by the late Dorothy and Mel Tanner, it is “one of the first and longest-standing light art studios in the U.S., long before immersive art was considered a trend’”. – Denverite

Limited Editions
The Lumonics Team has selected 11 light sculptures by Dorothy and Mel Tanner’s as limited editions for the Lumonics Legacy Project. Visit the Gallery webpage.
The passing of Dorothy Tanner in 2020 and the passing of Barbara Billard in August of 2023 have reduced the number in our art collective from 7 members to 2. As the remaining members, Marc Billard and Barry Raphael, we have been part of this incredible art project since 1972. With the help of our friends and supporters, we are embarking on a new journey: the Lumonics Legacy Project. This endeavor aims to ensure the continuation of Lumonics and preserve the remarkable works created by our late founders, Mel and Dorothy Tanner.
