Reversible Rotation in Infinite Transparency
Reversible Rotation in Infinite Transparency
This work begins when Reversible Rotation: One Stroke is drawn as far as the space of Infinite Transparency - Layered Ultrasubjective Space.
The viewer's viewpoint is not fixed, and they can look not only left and right but also in the depth direction, moving freely in all directions, exploring a physical perception in which the whole body is immersed in the world of the artwork.
The Spatial Calligraphy in this artwork space rotates in the same direction, but because of the characteristics of Ultrasubjective Space, visually, the clockwise and counterclockwise rotation are logically equivalent. Hence, the work can appear to be rotating in either direction depending on how the viewer chooses to look at it.
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 brush stroke, and that calligraphy is then flattened using the logical structure of space that teamLab calls Ultrasubjective Space. The calligraphy shifts between two and three dimensions.
