Continuous Life and Death at the Now of an Ancient Tree

teamLab, 2026, from the series Ever Blossoming Life Tree - Giant Taro Cedar, 2021-, Installation, Sound: Hideaki Takahashi

The giant tree standing in the forest of the castle ruins has taken its present form over many years, spreading its roots into the earth, thickening its trunk, and extending its branches.


People are usually unable to perceive the existence of periods of time far longer than their own lives, and that that time is continuous with the present. However, when confronting the giant tree, people realize that an endlessly long accumulated time is inherent within its overwhelming shape and texture.


We named this giant existence carved by a long span of time, Time-Sculpted Existence.


Within this giant existence, flowers repeat the cycle of life and death, the time of continuous life flows, and it continues to transform due to the existence of people living in the present.


Entering the forest of the castle ruins, wandering, and becoming one with this overwhelming existence, it becomes apparent that the endlessly long accumulated time is continuous with this very moment.


And when walking through the overlap of the endlessly long time accumulated in the tree and the time of continuous life, people physically realize that their own existence is part of a boundless continuity of a long, long time.
