teamLab: Digitized Fukuyama Castle
Fukuyama Castle was built in 1622, at the beginning of the Edo period when peace was restored, and was the last large-scale castle built at the time. During the Meiji era (1868 - 1912), Fukuyama Castle managed to avoid the castle demolition movement promulgated by the government, and its castle tower was designated a National Treasure. However, it burned down due to the air raids of the Second World War, and was reconstructed in 1966, along with the bathhouse and Tsukimi Yagura (a two-story turret) located within the walls of the castle grounds. In August 2022, the iron paneling, which is said to be the only one of its kind in Japan, was restored on the northern side of the castle in time for Fukuyama Castle’s 400th anniversary.

This exhibition is a part of teamLab’s Digitized City art project, in which teamLab explores how non-material digital technology can turn a city and its buildings into art without physically altering it.

teamLab: Digitized Fukuyama Castle will transform the grounds and historic castle of Fukuyama into an art space that transforms interactively. The artworks are influenced by the wind and rain, as well as by the behavior of people, making nature and the people become a part of the artworks, and a part of the long continuity of time. 

The artworks, people, and nature; the self and others; the past and the present; all form a continuity without boundaries.

Autonomous Resonating Life

The resisting and resonating ovoids are autonomous. When an ovoid is pushed over by people or blown by the wind, it rises back up as the color of its light changes and it emits a tone specific to that color. The surrounding ovoids respond one after another, continuously changing to the same color and emitting the same tone. The light then continues to resonate through the nearby Resonating Trees. Perhaps people will become more aware of the existence of others in the same space.

When the wind is not blowing and the people nearby are not interacting with the ovoids, their lights begin to blink slowly.

Animals of Flowers, Symbiotic Lives in the Stone Wall - Fukuyama Castle

Fukuyama Castle is built on a low hill upon three levels of stone walls, and its three-tiered construction, named Hitomi-dan, was considered an ideal military strategy back in the Edo period. Most of the original stone walls remain to this day.

The animals are formed from the stone walls and the flowers that bloom and die in a continuous cycle. When people touch the animals, the petals scatter. If people continue to touch them, the petals of the animals will scatter, and the animals will die and fade away.

صدى حياة الغابة المستقلة / Forest of Autonomous Resonating Life

The densely packed, standing ovoids of light are autonomous. When an ovoid is pushed over by people moving through or blown down by the wind, it rises back up as the color of its light changes and emits a tone specific to that color. The surrounding ovoids respond one after another, continuously changing to the same color and emitting the same tone.

When the wind is not blowing and the people nearby are not interacting with the ovoids, their lights begin to blink slowly.

Autonomous Resonating Life on the Stones of Oblivion - Fukuyama Castle

The resisting and resonating ovoids, placed on the foundation stones of the former castle, are autonomous. When an ovoid is pushed over by people or blown by the wind, it rises back up as the color of its light changes and emits a tone specific to that color. The surrounding ovoids respond one after another, continuously changing to the same color and emitting the same tone.

Walk, Walk, Walk - Fukuyama Castle

A group of anonymous and diverse figures walk along the stone walls of Fukuyama Castle.

Viewers will make choices, as they confront the figures.

“Hoho kore dojo” is a Zen expression on how every step is a place to learn. The figures in the artwork walk endlessly while confronting new situations. When people walk towards the figures, they will also confront new situations or new characters along their way.

The artwork is not a pre-recorded image that is played back: it is created by a computer program that continuously renders the work in real time. Previous visual states can never be replicated, and will never reoccur. The picture at this moment can never be seen again.

Resonating Trees

The trees shine brightly. The light of each tree is autonomous, blinking as if breathing slowly.

The light transmitted from Autonomous Resonating Life causes the trees’ lights to change color, and a tone specific to that color resonates out. The light of a tree is transmitted to the surrounding trees one by one, continuously emitting the same tone.

If light approaches from the trees in the distance, it signifies the presence of people there, making people more aware of the existence of others in the same space.

Enso on the Fushimi Yagura Turret - Fukuyama Castle

The Fushimi Yagura turret was relocated from Fushimi Castle in Kyoto, and is designated as a National Important Cultural Property. In this artwork, Enso is drawn infinitely on this Fushimi Yagura turret.

The black lines drawn with light express the absence of light, and cannot be distinguished from the shadows of the stone walls that have been weathered over the past several hundred years. The black calligraphy and the black shadows created by the long passing of time become one, infinitely drawing Enso on the stone walls.
Enso blurs the physical boundaries of the Fushimi Yagura turret, and creates a new time space.

Enso is the Zen practice of drawing a circle with a single brushstroke. This artwork depicts Enso drawn as Spatial Calligraphy. As the three-dimensional stroke rotates, there are moments when its circular shape is revealed.
Spatial Calligraphy is a form of calligraphy drawn in space that teamLab has been exploring since it was founded. The artwork reconstructs calligraphy in three-dimensional space to express the depth, speed, and power of the brushstroke.

Back in ancient times, Enso was drawn in space using sticks, to symbolize the concepts of enlightenment, truth, the universe, and equality, in a figurative manner. The circle is also a reflection of the viewer’s inner self, thus its interpretation depends on the viewer.

Cognitive Solidified Sparks

We do not perceive the world we see, we see the world we perceive.
A sphere made of accumulated rays of light.The light radiates from the center in infinite fine rays, creating its spherical shape. The light source remains motionless, yet the countless lines emitting from it wriggle continuously.
The sphere has no surface boundary, and the perception of the boundary between the artwork and the body is ambiguous. When you try to touch the sphere, it reacts, but since it does not have a physical boundary, your hand goes into the sphere.
What is this sphere? Why do the rays of lines wriggle?Our world is within us.
And if we perceive this sphere made of accumulated lines, the world we perceive will expand, and we may see the spheres of accumulated lines in our daily lives. As the world you perceive changes, the way you see the world goes on to change.
