teamLab: LIFE

Water is represented by a continuum of numerous water particles. The interaction between the particles is calculated, and then lines are drawn in relation to the behavior of the water particles. The lines are “flattened” using what teamLab considers to be ultrasubjective space.
When a person stands on the waterfall, they obstruct the flow of water like a rock, and the flow of water changes. The flow of water continues to transform due to the interaction of people. Previous visual states can never be replicated and will never reoccur. 
The flow of the waterfall influences other artworks.

على الرغم من أن الذات والطبيعة يبدوان مختلفين، إلا أنهما في الواقع كيان واحد، لا ينفصلان عن بعضهما البعض. إن نقيض الانقسام ليس هو التوحد، وقد ندرك أن الوجود الذي يبدو متميزًا هو في الواقع جزء من كلٍّ واحد.
إن منافع الطبيعة وتهديداتها، وكذلك منافع وتهديدات الحضارة، مستمرة. ولا يوجد مصدر للشر المطلق، ولا يمكن رفضه بشكل مثالي. ومع ذلك فإننا نسعى إلى تأكيد الحياة في جميع جوانبها. إن الحياة جميلة.
في هذا العمل الفني، تمت كتابة (生 "سيه")، المقطع الذي يدل على الحياة، بشكل ثلاثي الأبعاد باستخدام الخط في الفضاء. والخط في الفضاء هو شكل من أشكال الخط المرسوم في الفضاء والذي كان تيم لاب يستكشفه منذ تأسيسه. يعيد العمل الفني بناء الخط في فضاء ثلاثي الأبعاد للتعبير عن عمق وسرعة وقوة ضربة الفرشاة، ثم يتم تسطيح هذا الخط باستخدام البنية المنطقية التي يطلق عليها تيم لاب الفضاء فوق الذاتي. وينتقل الخط بين بعدين وثلاثة أبعاد.
يبدو فضاء العمل الفني التقليدي، المؤطر بالعدسة أو المنظور، وكأنه على الجانب الآخر من سطح العمل الفني، حيث يصبح السطح بمثابة حدود، ويتم فصل الفضاء الذي يوجد فيه المشاهد عن فضاء العمل الفني. ومع ذلك، فإن إحدى خصائص الفضاء فوق الذاتي هي أن سطح العمل الفني لا يصبح حدودًا.وبالتالي فإن الفضاء الذي يوجد فيه العمل الفني يتجاوز حدود سطح العمل الفني ويتم إدراكه كما لو أنه موجود بشكل ثلاثي الأبعاد في نفس الفضاء الذي يقف فيه المشاهد. وفضاء العمل الفني متواصل مع الفضاء المادي للمشاهد.

The three-dimensional terrain with varying elevations shifts and writhes, dividing visual and physical cognition of the space.
The movements of people cause the ground to shift and move to an even greater extent.

All oceans are connected to each other, and so are all the waves in this world.

This artwork has no beginning nor end, it consists of a single, continuous wave.
People who enter the artwork are confronted by this wave mass, and before long, they are drawn in, becoming one with the artwork. They realize that what they perceive as the exterior of the mass is also the interior. The exterior and interior are two sides of the same unified whole, indivisible. They make up a single, seamless existence.

In classical East Asian art, waves are often expressed using a combination of lines. These waves created by lines allow us to realize that each wave is one part of a larger flow, and conveys life as though the waves are a living entity.

When the waves rise, we can feel a powerful breath of life, as though life is blooming. It feels as though each wave has a life of its own. But when the waves collapse and disappear, we realize, with a sense of fragility, that they were a part of the ocean. And that ocean is connected to all of the other oceans. In other words, all of the waves in the world are connected to each other.
The waves seem alive because life is like a rising wave. It is a miraculous phenomenon that continuously emerges from a single, continuous ocean.

The waves are expressed through a continuous body of countless water particles. The interactions of particles are calculated, and then the movement of water is simulated in three-dimensional space. Lines are created along the trajectories of the water particles, and drawn on the surface layer of the three-dimensional waves.
The lines are created with what teamLab refers to as Ultrasubjective Space. In contrast to space that is created through, or cut out by, lenses and perspective, Ultrasubjective Space does not fix the viewer’s viewpoint and in turn frees the body. The wall that the waves are seen on does not become a boundary between the viewer and the artwork, and the artwork space is continuous with the space of the viewer’s body.

The flowers repeat the cycle of life and death in perpetuity, continually changing with the flow of time. When people touch them, the flower petals scatter and fall away.
