Journey: by the creative studio Nohlab - Atelier des Lumières

The Atelier des Lumières gallery in Paris is holding an exhibition called Journey: by the creative Nohlab studio from 28 February 2020 to 3 January 2021.

The Turkish collective Nohlab received first prize at the Immersive Art Festival in Paris on 24 October 2019, and is currently on exhibition at the Atelier des Lumières gallery.

The collection presents digital designs, with large displays on the walls of the gallery, by some of the most influential artistic collectives in the world of digital arts. Eleven works were adapted to, and designed for, the Atelier des Lumières gallery.

It is a 4-minute show with video, photography, motion design, and surround-sound. It is an experimental journey with the theme of photons, one of the primary elements of light. The journey describes how photons pass through all of the layers of the eye (iris, vitreous humour, optical nerve, etc.) until they reach the neurons and are converted into electrical signals. It describes the process by which photons are transformed into a form of energy that is perceptible by the brain.

Nohlab, created in 2011, is a studio that specializes in the production of interdisciplinary experiences around art, design, and technology. It creates a link between digital technology and reality. It creates tools, models, and stories in which the link between humans and technology takes different forms.
