Light Festival in Tadasu no Mori at Shimogamo Shrine, Kyoto Art by teamLab – TOKIO INKARAMI


- The World Heritage Site of the Forest of Tadasu at Shimogamo Shrine -


teamLab’s Digitized Nature art project uses non-material digital art to transform nature into art, without having a physical impact on it.


Tadasu Forest has been turned into an art space with the installations Resisting and Resonating Ovoids and Forest and Floating, Resonating Spheres – Shimogamo Shrine, the road approaching Shimogamo shrine and the tower gate become light artworks that are changed by people’s presence.


Story behind TOKIO INKARAMI's contribution


With the concept of "delivering Japanese beauty and culture to the world," we fuse opposing elements like technology and nature, progress and tradition, or strength and beauty, and cherish the balance between them while we work to create a global beauty culture.


We are now supporting the activities of teamLab, a driving force in the international art scene. We resonate with their conviction that "digital concepts spread beauty."


At IFing Co., Ltd., Dr. Jr. Division, TOKIO INKARAMI, we will always strive to use art to preserve culture and tradition throughout the generations while introducing Japanese aesthetic sensibilities to the world.

teamLab
teamLab (f. 2001) is an international art collective. Their collaborative practice seeks to navigate the confluence of art, science, technology, and the natural world. Through art, the interdisciplinary group of specialists, including artists, programmers, engineers, CG animators, mathematicians, and architects, aims to explore the relationship between the self and the world, and new forms of perception. In order to understand the world around them, people separate it into independent entities with perceived boundaries between them. teamLab seeks to transcend these boundaries in our perceptions of the world, of the relationship between the self and the world, and of the continuity of time. Everything exists in a long, fragile yet miraculous, borderless continuity. teamLab exhibitions have been held in cities worldwide, including New York, London, Paris, Singapore, Silicon Valley, Beijing, and Melbourne among others. teamLab museums and large-scale permanent exhibitions include teamLab Borderless and teamLab Planets in Tokyo, teamLab Borderless Shanghai, and teamLab SuperNature Macao, with more to open in cities including Abu Dhabi, Beijing, Hamburg, Jeddah, and Utrecht. teamLab’s works are in the permanent collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide; Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; Asia Society Museum, New York; Borusan Contemporary Art Collection, Istanbul; National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; and Amos Rex, Helsinki. teamlab.art Biographical Documents teamLab is represented by Pace Gallery, Martin Browne Contemporary and Ikkan Art.
