At the Museum of Art + Light (MoA+L) in Manhattan, Kansas, art and technology converge to create immersive experiences that ignite imagination all while using Epson’s next-generation projection technology to do it.

Vision rooted in inspiration

The MoA+L vision began nearly six years ago with a bold idea – to build a museum that blends traditional collections with immersive digital experiences for 21st-century visitors. The centerpiece of this vision is now The Mezmereyz Gallery (“The Mez”), a state-of-the-art immersive exhibit space on the MoA+L’s first floor.

“We’re building entirely new artistic worlds, and that requires state-of-the-art technology,” said Erin Dragotto, executive director of the Museum of Art + Light. “We depend on industry leaders who can elevate each artist’s vision and support their creative process. It’s a complex undertaking, and Epson has truly stepped up to meet the challenge.”

To bring “The Mez” to life, the museum needed a display solution that provided flexible throw distance and aspect ratios, as well as precise brightness and resolution to ensure art-quality viewing at close range. For Sydney Bouhaniche, creative director of immersive exhibitions at the museum, projection was the clear choice. “When you’re immersed in projection, you don’t need permission or prior knowledge of art history to experience it fully,” he said.

With deep expertise in digital and immersive art experiences, Bouhaniche led the design process. After building a full 3D model of the space and assessing multiple projector brands, he said, “Epson consistently delivered the best results in pixel clarity, color reproduction, projector count and lens options.”
