Resonating Microcosms in the Common camellia Garden - Solidified Light Color, Sunrise and Sunset

teamLab, 2022, Interactive Digital Installation, Sound: Hideaki Takahashi

A camellia garden filled with ovoids that transform from day to night.


Under the sun, the ovoids reflect the world around them.

As the sun sets, the ovoids begin to shine by themselves. When an ovoid is pushed by a person, blown by the wind, or hit by rain, it shines brightly and produces a tone as it rises back up on its own. The surrounding ovoids respond one after another, resonating and emitting the same tone and light color.


The ovoids begin to flicker slowly when the wind is quiet and people do not push them.

The ovoids can change into a total of 61 newly-defined Solidified Light Colors.
