Lumonics’ Marc Billard video, Mountain Meditation 3, was accepted in the upcoming Tilting West: Defining A New Legacy Exhibition at the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities. The exhibit opens June 3 and ends on August 23, 2026. We hope you can see the exhibit.
Contemporary regional artists—whether or not they identify as Western artists—were invited to explore and reinterpret the American Western genre through a contemporary lens. Tilting West challenges traditional notions of Western art, encouraging work that reflects diverse perspectives, materials, and themes, from environmental concerns to social commentary. Artists working in unconventional forms or conceptual approaches were especially encouraged to apply.
Mountain Meditation 3 has been played at Lumonics Immersed, presented on Fridays and Saturdays at the Lumonics Light & Sound Gallery.
“The source material is Colorado car rides and hikes in the mountains, which I record using a mobile phone camera and/or Insta360 camera attached to the car window or mounted on the roof. I then transform the imagery in production, and add my original soundtrack. No AI!”
