Flowers Bloom on a Waterfall - Deep in the Mountains of Shikoku

teamLab, 2016 - 2017, Digitized Nature, Sound: Hideaki Takahashi

A projection onto a waterfall that is situated deep in the Mountains of Shikoku.

Water is the source of life. For this reason, the waterfall is a symbol of this mysterious and overflowing life force. On a fiercely flowing waterfall – flowers bloom.

Flowers are born, they grow, bud, bloom, and eventually scatter, wither, and fade away. The flowers are in a continuous cycle of birth and death, repeating forever.

The artwork is continuously depicted in real time by a computer program. It is not a prerecorded animation. Previous states are never replicated, the same moment can never be seen again.
