© Billi Thanner

The “Cultural Olympics” were held in Paris in the summer of 2024, at the same time as the Olympic Games. As part of these, sbp was honored to support the Austrian artist Billi Thanner and the Forum Culturel Autrichien Paris with the installation of an artwork.
“L’échelle Céleste – Scale of Peace”, a lighting installation in the Saint Eustache church in Paris’s 1st arrondissement, was 20 meters high and almost reached the vault of the church. It symbolized “peace, the celestial and the virtues of hope, faith and love”. sbp ensured the structural and the safety related issues during construction.
