Lab212成立于2008年，由一群在巴黎高等传媒和互动设计学院毕业的朋友创立。2015年，他们成为法国文化和通信部门青年创作大会的艺术领域代表。Lab212的成员包括Jonathan Blanchet, Juliette Champain, François Chay, Cyril Diagne, Erik Escoffier, Nicolas Guichard, Béatrice Lartigue, Tobias Muthesius和Pierre Thirion。该团体使用新媒体创建装置，探究我们对空间和音响的感知。这些作品让观众成为演员，挑战了其空间感知并通过光与声音束在空间的体现（例如2020年作品Passifolia）、风力对景观的影响（例如2018年作品Nebula）或人体在大气中的重量（例如2012年作品Starfield等方式，给予了抽象现象以实体性的敏锐阐释。他们的作品在伦敦巴比肯中心、伦敦V&A博物馆、东京未来馆、苏黎世数字艺术博物馆、首尔DMuseum、巴黎蓬皮杜艺术中心和Gaîté Lyrique艺术中心等地展出。Lab212曾获得多项国际奖项，包括圣丹斯电影节斩获（新前沿选择：Notes on Blindness）、艺术电子学奖（互动艺术荣誉提名：LightType）和Lumen Prize喜获表演奖（Portée/）。

STATEMENTUsing new media, the collective creates installations which explore our perceptions of space and sound.
These pieces, in which the visitor becomes an actor, provoke a loss of bearings and offer a sensitive interpretation of impalpable phenomena by giving them a materiality, as through light and sound beams in space (Passifolia, 2020), the force of the wind on the landscape (Nebula, 2018), or the weight of the body in atmosphere (Starfield, 2012).
EXHIBITIONSTheir works were exhibited at the Barbican Centre (London, GBR), the V&A Museum (London, GBR), the Miraikan Museum (Tokyo, JPN), the Museum of Digital Art (Zurich, CHE), the DMuseum (Seoul, KOR), le Centre Pompidou (Paris, FRA), la Gaîté Lyrique (Paris, FRA).
AWARDSLab212 has won several international awards, including from the Sundance Film Festival (New Frontier Selection: Notes on Blindness), Ars Electronica (Interactive Art Honorary Mention: LightType), the Lumen Prize (Performance Award: Portée/).
