Water

Drawing on the Water Surface Created by the Dance of Koi and People - Infinity

Koi swim on the surface of water that stretches out into infinity. People can walk into the water. 
The movement of the koi is influenced by the presence of people in the water and also other koi. When the fish collide with people they turn into flowers and scatter. Throughout a year, the flowers that bloom will change along with the seasons.
The trajectory of the koi is determined by the presence of people and these trajectories trace lines on the surface of the water.
The work is rendered in real time by a computer program. It is neither prerecorded nor on loop. The interaction between the viewer and the installation causes continuous change in the artwork. Previous visual states can never be replicated, and will never reoccur.

The Infinite Crystal Universe

Pointillism uses an accumulation of distinct dots of color to create a picture. Here, light points are used to create three-dimensional objects. The light sculpture extends infinitely in all directions. People use their smartphones to select stars to throw into The Infinite Crystal Universe. These stars are reborn in three dimensions, creating the artwork. The presence of people and their location within the work affect these three-dimensional stars, which in turn influence and are influenced by other stars in the space.
This artwork is forever evolving, changing from moment to moment due to the people in the space.

Floating in the Falling Universe of Flowers

A seasonal year of flowers bloom and change with time, life spreads out into the universe.
Lie down or sit still in the space and eventually your body floats and you dissolve into the artwork world.

Flowers grow, bud, bloom, and in time, the petals fall, and the flowers wither and die. The cycle of birth and death continues for perpetuity.
The artwork is not a pre-recorded image that is played back; it is created by a computer program that continuously renders the artwork in real time. As a whole, it is continuously changing, and previous visual states are never replicated. The universe at this moment in time can never be seen again.

Expanding Three-dimensional Existence in Transforming Space - Flattening 3 Colors and 9 Blurred Colors

The space is filled with spheres of light. People move through the spheres and enter the space. When the spheres change color, the space itself shifts between a collection of spheres forming a three-dimensional space and a flat color wall.
When people move through or push them, the spheres change color, and emit a tone specific to that color. The surrounding spheres respond one after another, resonating and emitting the same tone and light color.
Wherever the sphere is, the behavior of light is maintained across the whole of the space (a three-dimensional image in which one sphere is regarded as one dot). Therefore, the light behaves as a group and can be thought of as one three-dimensional existing space. At this time, the light spreads spherically around the impacted sphere.
Since the spheres are freely positioned within the collection of sphere elements that make up the three-dimensional space, people recognize it as existing three-dimensionally and part the spheres entering into the three-dimensional existing space.
The shape of the space is determined by the collection of spheres and changes according to people’s actions (pushing or colliding).
Before the modern era in Japan, complex colors born from the characteristics of silk were given names evocative of the four seasons. Such colors were called Kasane no Irome (nuances of layered colors), and were created by the combination of the lining and exterior fabric (silk was thin at the time so the color of the lining showed through the exterior fabric), gradations from overlapping colors, and blending of warp and weft. Since the sphere colors are produced by light, it is possible to create nine blurred colors, (light in water, sunlight on water plants, morning glow, morning sky, sky at twilight, peach, plum, iris, spring maple), as well as three colors that flatten the space (blue, red, and green), producing a total of 12 colors.

Ephemeral Crystallized Light

Innumerable masses of light float in the air, each one composed of multiple colors. The boundaries of each color are clearly separated as though they are solid.
The seemingly solid color separation of the masses of light is not seen in the natural world, and is caused by extreme synchronization. Through self-organization over time, this synchronization phenomenon creates a large ordered structure.

When you touch a solidified light, you realize that the visible part is part of something that continues to flow without interruption.
Life is a phenomenon like crystals of ephemeral light, miraculously solidified into a continuum of energy that continues to flow without interruption from a past whose beginning is unknown.

Waterfall of Light Particles at the Top of an Incline

This artwork is based on an earlier work on a natural waterfall in the mountains of Shikoku, Waterfall of Light Particles - Deep in the Mountains of Shikoku (2016-2017).
Light only reflects off the particles of water that make up the waterfall. The shining particles cascade down creating a waterfall of light particles. The light of the shining waterfall illuminates the surrounding area.In the darkness, the shining particles leave a light trail afterimage that appears to draw lines in space. From the combination of these afterimage light traces, the waterfall of light is born.

Soft Black Hole - Your Body Becomes a Space that Influences Another Body

Trying to walk, the foot sinks. The space itself is affected and changed by the weight of people's bodies. And the people's bodies are affected by the changing space. People interact with each other through space. Your body changes the space, and that space changes the body of others.

In modern life we are surrounded by flat hard surfaces, so that in our daily lives we have lost consciousness of our bodies, we have forgotten them. In natural forests flat ground does not exist. This installation is a space to remind us of the body that we have forgotten in everyday life, and to make us more conscious of our body mass.

Garden

Floating Flower Garden: Flowers and I are of the Same Root, the Garden and I are One

This floating flower garden consists of a three-dimensional mass of flowers.The artwork space is completely filled with flowers, but as the flowers float up above people, open spaces are created. Because of this, people are able to freely wander around the flower mass space. If you encounter other people within the artwork, your space will connect with theirs and become one single space.
Zen gardens are said to have been created as a place for groups of Zen priests to carry out training in order to become one with nature. There is a Zen kōan (a question or story that is part of Zen priests’ theological training) called “Nansen’s Flower”. Someone asked the monk Nansen about the famous saying, “Heaven and I are of the same root. All things and I are of the same substance”, remarking on how wonderful it was. Nansen, pointing to a flower in the garden, said, “People these days see this flower as if they were in a dream”.In this work, people immerse themselves in flowers, becoming one with the garden. When someone continues to look at a flower closely, the flower looks back. At that moment, they become one with the flower and may truly see flowers for the first time.
The flowers in this artwork are orchids. Most orchids are able to grow without soil by absorbing water from the air. The flowers in this artwork are alive, growing, and blooming with each passing day. It could be said that they are growing in mid-air. Although flowering plants were the last of the plant species to appear on earth, at least 220,000 of the 250,000 terrestrial plant species are flowering plants. Evolution has favored diversity, and it can be said that flowers were born to produce diversity. Orchids were flowering plants that most enjoyed diversity, and it is said that approximately 10% of all plant species belong to the orchid family. Because of their diversity, many orchids evolved to become most adapted to live on rocks and trees instead of land with soil where other plants grew abundantly. In an area without soil, in other words, traditionally a least favorable environment for plants, orchids evolved to be most adapted for a world without competition. They are thought to have appeared at a later stage of evolution compared to other plants, and continue to diversify to this day, making us wonder what evolution chose to favor.
Orchids are known to have co-evolved with certain pollen-carrying insects. The flowers’ aromas become stronger at the time of day when the partner insects are active. Because of this, the scent of the artwork space changes each moment between morning, day, evening, and night. Since many of the orchids in this work are partnered with nocturnal insects, the tightly-packed orchids produce a powerful fragrance at night.

Moss Garden of Resonating Microcosms - Solidified Light Color, Dusk to Dawn

* Today's sunset is at 16:56
* The content of the work changes between daytime and after sunset. The artwork will glow after sunset.
* In the event of light rain, the artwork will remain open to the public. In the event of typhoon-level winds or heavy rain, the artwork will not be viewable.

Ovoids that change appearance with the sunrise and sunset are laid out in the moss garden.

With sunrise, the ovoids begin to reflect the world around them. When pushed down by a person or blown by the wind, the ovoid falls back and then rises, releasing a resonating tone. The ovoids around it also respond one after another, continuing to resonate with the same tone.

As the sun sets, the ovoids shine by themselves. When an ovoid is pushed by a person or blown by the wind, it shines brightly and emits a sound tone, as it rights itself. The ovoids around it also respond one after another, emitting the same light color and sound tone that continues to resonate out.

The space of the work is interactively transformed under the influence of the wind, rain, and the behavior of the people in the space, making the environment and the people a part of the work. When the wind is quiet and people are still, the ovoids begin to flicker slowly.

teamLab is experimenting with the concept of color. The ovoids can change into a total of 61 newly-defined Solidified Light Colors.

It is said that mosses were the first terrestrial organisms to appear in a world of rocks and sand, where there was no life on land yet. As mosses and ferns appeared and forests were created, a variety of animals became able to live on land.
Since water inside cells is essential for living things, if the body lacks water, it will die. Mosses, on the other hand, are poikilohydric, meaning the water content in the cells change according to surrounding humidity levels. So moss will not die during long dry periods, and they come back to life when given water. Because mosses are poikilohydric, their color and shape change dramatically when the air is dry versus when it is wet, such as when there is rain or fog.
Tardigrades, which live in moss, also go into a non-metabolic state of dormancy when the surrounding environment becomes dry, but they revive and become active when there is water. The state that tardigrades enter, when they are neither living nor dead, is called cryptobiosis. This may cause us to consider what it means to be alive.

Athletics Forest

A high-dimensional thinking athletics space based on the concept of perceiving the world with your body and thinking about it high-dimensionally. In a complex and challenging space, you will be immersed in a physically challenging four-dimensional world where time changes with the presence of your body.

Rapidly Rotating Bouncing Spheres in the Caterpillar House

Rapidly Rotating Bouncing Sphere is a space made up of spheres that people can jump on. The spheres rotate at high speed, but when people approach them, they stop rotating and become easier to step on.
If they bounce on spheres of the same color in succession, the spheres will pop and particles of light spread out into the space. If people bounce on more spheres of the same color in succession, caterpillars are born, and if they keep jumping on the same colored spheres in succession until the end, all the spheres of the same color will pop, and many caterpillars will be born.

Multi Jumping Universe

Multi Jumping is a flexible surface that people can jump on, and sink or jump higher than usual. 
When you stand on Multi Jumping, the surface beneath your feet sinks, creating warps in space and time. This distortion attracts stardust from the universe and births new stars. If you jump on top of a star, it begins to move, and if you continue to jump on the star it will grow and you will be able to experience the entire life cycle of the star. When the life of the star ends, it returns to stardust and becomes the building blocks of new stars.A gigantic and heavy star will eventually become a black hole that swallows up all the surrounding stars and stardust.

Aerial Climbing through a Flock of Colored Birds

Aerial Climbing is a space where horizontal bars of varying colors are suspended by ropes and float three-dimensionally in the air. People use these bars to navigate the space in mid-air through three dimensions, trying not to fall. As the bars are linked, the movement caused on a bar by a person will affect the bars on which other people are standing. The arrangement of the bars vary depending on the selected route, so people’s experiences will differ depending on the various ways the bars are linked.When people climb onto the bars, they shine brightly and produce a sound specific to its color. The more people climb onto bars of different colors, the more sounds will be played at the same time.
Flocks of birds fly around freely in this space. When they fly near the people in the space, they take on the color of the bars on which the people stand.
The movement of thousands of birds is beautiful and mysterious, appearing like a single giant life form. The flock has neither a leader nor mutual consensus, but it is said that the birds move on the simple basis of; if my neighbor moves, then I move too. However, the biological mechanism that causes hundreds of birds to move at the same time remains a mystery. It seems there is a universal principle that humans have yet to understand. Likewise, the arrangement of color of the flock is not predetermined. Influenced by people, the birds move, based on a primitive rule unknown to humankind, which in turn creates a complex and beautiful coloration in the space.

Balance Stepping Stones in the Invisible World

Balance Stepping Stones are stepping stones that interactively change when a person steps on them, emitting a color and tone that affect the space. When a person steps on a stone, it wobbles in various ways.

While jumping across the Balance Stepping Stones, people cross over into the normally invisible world of microorganisms. When a person steps on a Balance Stepping Stone, that stone’s color is transmitted to the microscopic life.

Graffiti Nature

Color in a creature on the paper provided, and see the picture you have drawn come to life and move in front of you.
Living things eat and and are eaten by other living things in one shared ecosystem. The creatures you draw will multiply if they eat other living things, but they will die and disappear if they do not eat enough, or if they are eaten by other creatures.
The salamanders eat the snakes, the snakes eat the lizards, the lizards eat the frogs, and the frogs eat the butterflies, each one propagating as a result. Likewise, the butterflies multiply in places where flowers grow.Although flowers will bloom if people stay still, their petals will scatter if people walk around and step on them. The salamanders will die if people step on them too much.
Living creatures spread throughout the world, increasing and decreasing in number. The creatures you have drawn may be increasing somewhere.

Sketch Waterfall Droplets

This waterfall is created from the droplets drawn by people.
Color in a droplet on the paper provided. See the picture you have drawn become one of the many droplets that make up the waterfall in front of you. Before long, your droplet will mix with those drawn by other people and will flow down along the terrain.
When just one droplet splashes it bounces like a ball, but when people use their entire body to gather and collect the droplets, they act like water.
A water molecule on its own is not liquid. In order for water to be a liquid, many water molecules must come together.Because water molecules act like magnets, they stick to each other, forming a group of water molecules (a water cluster). Water clusters have an extremely short lifespan and are thought to be constantly being created and broken apart. They have a very dynamic structure and because of that, water can change into various forms.
Most living things and objects in this world, through properties that are more than the simple sum of the properties of their parts, appear as a whole.

Sliding through the Fruit Field

This is a slide where fruit grows.
You become the sunlight and slide down the slope. When your body collides with the water balls and honey bee balls, your energy will be transferred to them, and they will go flying off in all directions. When the balls collide with the fruit, the fruit will begin to grow.
Each ball has a different role depending on its color.
A light blue ball represents water: when this ball hits the seeds, they sprout, bud, and blossom. When a yellow honey bee ball hits the flowers, they are pollinated, and the flowers become fruit. When the fruit is hit by a ball, new seeds are sown, leading to new life.

Waterfall Droplets, Flowing Down a Slope

Many water droplets flow down a slope.
A single droplet bounces like a ball, but when many are gathered together, they behave like water. When they break apart, they behave like a ball again.
When people climb the steps up the hill, the droplets near the step receive energy and break apart.

Autonomous Abstraction

Autonomous abstraction.
The dots of light blink and change color in cycles unique to each dot. A spontaneous order phenomenon occurs between dots that are close to each other, and their hues and the rhythm at which they blink gradually synchronize. When people touch them, the rhythm of the blinking hues change and are randomized, but the dots close to each other once again cause a spontaneous order phenomenon between them.
The dots of lights emit a tone each time they blink. The tones can be heard continuously throughout the space; what sounds like music is solely created by the continuous tones produced by the blinking lights.

A spontaneous order phenomenon occurs when different rhythms influence each other and synchronize. Examples include when the pendulums of two clocks gradually begin to swing together; when many fireflies gather in one tree and all start blinking at the same time, creating a larger light as a whole; or when the cells that make up the heart synchronize and tremble simultaneously to create the pulse of the heart. This can be seen in various systems, from physical phenomena, neurophysiology, to ecosystems. Although the individual parts do not have the ability to observe the whole, the phenomenon of self-organization is the creation of an ordered and larger structure, resulting from the autonomous behavior of each individual part influencing each other. This phenomenon is also known as spontaneous order.

It is believed that entropy (a measurement of the lack of order in a system) in the universe will steadily increase (the law of increasing entropy) and that entities with form eventually collapse. Despite that, it is a wonder that the sun was created and the planets were born, that life was formed and societies exist. However, the reason why the universe, life, nature, and society continue to be maintained in spite of this may be because order is continuously formed on its own through the shared phenomenon of self-organization in the midst of disorder. In other words, the universe and our own existence are a continuous order created by the same phenomenon.

Existence in the Flow Creates Vortices

Vortices are created behind people as they climb against the flow.

Although a vortex is steady, it is constantly moving and swelling like a powerful life-form.
Despite the existence of the vortex being maintained, the water particles that form it change from moment to moment. The vortex that is being seen now is created by completely different water from the same vortex seen a few minutes ago. The vortex, unlike a rock, cannot maintain a stable structure on its own; rather, it is created and sustained by the energy of water that continuously flows inwards and outwards.
A vortex looks like a life-form because life similarly consumes external energy and matter and discharges it, sustaining its ordered structure within that flow. Life is a miraculous vortex that emerges from a flow of energy in a continuous world.

Water is depicted as a continuum of countless water particles, and the interactions between the particles are calculated to create a three-dimensional simulation of their movement. The vortices create lines from the trails of these particles. The collection of three-dimensional lines are then cut out using what teamLab calls Ultrasubjective Space. In contrast to space that is created through, or cut out by, lenses and perspective, Ultrasubjective Space does not fix the viewer’s viewpoint and in turn frees their body. The floor and walls that the vortices are seen on do not become a boundary between the viewer and the artwork, and the artwork space becomes continuous with the space in which the viewer’s body exists.

Sketch Umwelt World

Color in an airplane, dolphin, hawk, or butterfly on the paper provided and see the picture you have drawn appear three-dimensionally, flying through the world. If you touch them, they speed up or fly away.You can control the plane, dolphin, hawk, or butterfly with your smartphone and see the world from their perspectives on the screen.
Each living creature understands the world only through their own perception, so the world looks different depending on the creature. Such worlds constructed upon each creature’s unique perceptual experiences are called umwelt. Here, you control the airplane through a lens like a pilot. However, if a living creature is chosen, you can control them and see the world in a completely different way.
Dolphins emit sounds and perceive the world through the echoes. Just as the sound of striking metal differs from that of plastic, they can even recognize differences in materials. While fresh flowers and artificial flowers may appear the same to humans, dolphins perceive them as entirely different. Since dolphins' eyes do not recognize the color of light, the world they experience may be a world of colors completely different from that of humans.
Hawks can see two things clearly at once. When a person focuses on one thing, it is difficult to see the surrounding elements. However, the hawks can observe small creatures on the ground while looking ahead of them as they fly. Tap an area you want to zoom in on the tablet, and that area will appear bigger on the screen.
Butterflies have a 344-degree horizontal field of vision, and almost a 360-degree vertical field of vision. With the tablet, you can see the world not only in front of you, but on both sides and behind you as well.

This is a window into the universe where little people live.
You can create a picture by drawing lines with a light pen or creating shapes with a light stamp. Each line has a special power depending on its color, and influences the little people’s world. The shapes created by the light stamps appear in the little people’s world and start to move.
Yellow lines make the little people bounce and fly.Blue lines speed up the little people, making them run faster.Pink lines make the little people bounce like on a rubber band, and the reverberations are transferred along the line.Purple lines have gravity and attract the little people to them.Green lines form shapes and they start to move.
Draw a big picture and try lots of stamps together with those around you. Create a new world in the little people’s universe, give them various powers and watch their world transform into a new world.

Catching and Collecting Extinct Forest

An educational project based on the concept of Catch, Collect, Research, in which people use their bodies to explore, discover, gather knowledge, and expand their curiosity. Explore with your smartphone, catch various animals, research them, and create your very own collection book.
There are various animals that have already gone extinct living in this Extinct Forest. When you move close to the animals or touch them, they will run away or turn to face you.
When you use the smartphone's camera to look at an animal moving in the space, and release a Research Arrow at the animal in the camera’s view, the arrow flies out from the phone into the real space. When the Research Arrow reaches the animal, it disappears from the space and is added to the smartphone collection. Information about the animals you catch will be stored in the app’s collection book. When you swipe a captured animal towards a location you can see in the app’s camera, the animal is released and returns to that location.
You can also throw a Research Net at your feet to catch animals. Work together with those around you, use your body to drive animals into the Research Net to capture them, and watch as they disappear from the space and, at the same time, appear in your collection book. Swipe the captured animals away to release them at your feet.
The more you capture the same animal, the more detailed information you can record in your collection book.

Universe of Fire Particles Falling from the Sky

When people stand on the work, a black absolute presence is created, and the shape of the flames change. The work is affected by people, and is in a state of perpetual, continuous change.

Flames are a phenomenon of light and heat generated by combustion; it is a vaporized substance in a flow, a decomposed substance. It is our sensory experience of seeing what is in between phenomenon and substance.

Lines are drawn in relation to the flow of combusting gas, and the flames are created by the accumulation of those lines in three-dimensions. The lines are then “flattened” using what teamLab considers to be Ultrasubjective Space to represent the flames.

teamLab is exploring the concept of Distributed Art.
If you launch the Distributed Fire smartphone application and approach this artwork, the flame will ignite and you can take the artwork home with you. When you bring that flame close to another person's smartphone, a flame will alight. As you connect the flame, and they connect that flame with someone else, the flame will spread all over the world. The flames that are spread are displayed on the Map of The Flame.

Distributed Art duplicates itself, or a part of an artwork is distributed among people. Then, once in the hands of the people, the artwork is further actively distributed, and also makes copies of itself. The artworks will be distributed and exist on people's networks and become decentralized. When the artwork exists on the network, it continues to exist even if the original disappears.

Nursery Lamps in Spontaneous Order

* Location: Inside Orchid Glass House

The orchids from Floating Flower Garden whose flowers have fallen come to this space and are nurtured in the lamps. The lamps contain light and water necessary for the growth of the orchids.
Each lamp glows to its own rhythm. Over time, nearby lamps and Tea and Sake in Spontaneous Order cause a spontaneous order phenomenon, and they influence each other.

A spontaneous order phenomenon occurs when different rhythms influence each other and synchronize. Examples include when the pendulums of two clocks gradually begin to swing together; when many fireflies gather in one tree and all start blinking at the same time, creating a larger light as a whole; or when the cells that make up the heart synchronize and tremble simultaneously to create the pulse of the heart. This can be seen in various systems, from physical phenomena, neurophysiology, to ecosystems. Although the individual parts do not have the ability to observe the whole, the phenomenon of self-organization is the creation of an ordered and larger structure, resulting from the autonomous behavior of each individual part influencing each other. This phenomenon is also known as spontaneous order.

Tea and Sake in Spontaneous Order

* Location: Inside Orchid Glass House

When a cup of tea or sake is poured, the tea or sake begins to glow with its own unique rhythm and produce a tone.A spontaneous order phenomenon occurs between the teas, sake or the lamps of Nursery Lamps in Spontaneous Order. As they influence each other, gradually the rhythms of light and color of the teas or sake synchronize. You drink a part of that order.The artwork is born only when there is tea or sake. When you finish drinking the tea or sake, the work will no longer exist and will no longer affect its surroundings.
The light color of the tea or sake is Dynamic Equilibrium Color, a new color concept by teamLab. When a person sees the tea or sake in the cup from a distance, taking in its entirety, the color of the light does not appear to change; but when they look closely, observing the miniscule, the color of the light is actually continuously changing, and creating a new sense of time.
A spontaneous order phenomenon occurs when different rhythms influence each other and become aligned. Examples include when the pendulums of two clocks gradually begin to swing together, when many fireflies gather in one tree and all start flashing at the same time, creating a larger light phenomenon, or when the cells that make up the heart synchronize and tremble simultaneously to create the beating of the heart. The phenomenon of self-organization is the creation of a large structure with order resulting from the autonomous behavior of each individual, even though each individual does not have the ability to observe the whole. This can also be called a self-organization phenomenon.
It is believed that entropy (a measurement of the lack of order in a system) in the universe will steadily increase (the law of increasing entropy) and that entities with form eventually collapse. However, the reason why the universe, life, nature, and society are able to exist in spite of this may be because order is born by itself through the common phenomenon of self-organization in the midst of disorder. In other words, the universe and our own existence are a continuous order created by the same phenomenon.

Reversible Rotation in the Black Emptiness

* Location: Inside Black Emptiness Table

In Black Emptiness, because it is empty, infinite possibilities open up where anything can enter it.
When you sit down, Spatial Calligraphy is drawn in front of you. 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 equivalent. Hence, the work can appear to be rotating in either direction depending on how the viewer chooses to see 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.

Pocket Forest Block

A forest which people cannot enter. The forest is composed of a wide variety of densely planted trees following the “mixed and dense planting” method, which focuses on the native potential of the natural vegetation of the land. This forest is self-sustaining and will persist indefinitely, even without any human intervention.

Forest, Wind and Light Paintings - Dusk to Dawn

This artwork appears after sunset. The forest determines the color of the touches, and like sunlight filtering through the trees, it creates the touches. The wind changes those touches, making them dynamic.

Cognitive Solidified Spark

* Location: Inside Sketch Factory

We do not perceive the world we see, we see the world we perceive.
Spheres 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 spheres have no surface boundary, and the perception of the boundary between the artwork and the body is ambiguous. When you try to touch a sphere, your hand goes into the sphere as it does not have a physical boundary. 
What is this sphere? Why do the rays of lines wriggle?Our world is within us.
And if we perceive these spheres 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.

Open Environment Eternity

* Location: Living Art Store

This orchid originally grows on rocks or tree trunks without soil. This orchid can live forever when there is wind, sunlight, and appropriate amounts of rain and water. This work possesses eternity in an open environment continuous with the outside world.
On the other hand, classical painting seeks to embody eternity in a closed environment, where there is no wind, no sunlight, and no water.
For this work, the presence of appropriate wind, sunlight, rain, and water means a specific environment, or an environment maintained by humans. However, an environment without wind, sunlight, and water is also an artificial environment created and maintained by humans.
Is eternity in a closed environment or eternity in an open, continuous environment the true eternity of existence? In the first place, a completely closed environment does not actually exist.

Open Environment Eternal Existence

* Location: Living Art Store

This orchid originally grows by attaching itself to rocks or tree trunks without soil. This orchid can live forever when there is wind, sunlight, and an appropriate amount of rain or water. This artwork possesses eternity in an open environment that is continuous with the outside.
On the other hand, classical art seeks to hold eternity in a closed environment, where there is no wind, no sunlight, and no water.
For this artwork, the presence of the appropriate wind, sunlight, rain, and water means a specific environment, or an environment maintained by humans. However, an environment without wind, sunlight, or water is also an artificial environment created and maintained by humans.
Is eternity found in a closed environment, or in an open, continuous environment? What is the eternity of existence?
In the first place, a completely closed environment does not actually exist.

designboom visits teamLab's Planets TOKYO new additions to their body-immersive museum

teamLab Planets Tokyo is the digital art museum founded by the international art collective teamLab, located in Toyosu, Tokyo. The concept behind Planets is body-immersive: interactive installations that bring people physically inside the imagination of teamLab. Art has always privileged sight over other senses, and through the various installations in Planets, teamLab aims to transform art from something to be experienced visually to something to be experienced with the entire body. Visitors can expect to walk through knee-high water and lie beneath a sky of digital flowers.(Excerpt from the text)

ARTISTE

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’s works are in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide; National Gallery of Australia, Canberra;  Amos Rex, Helsinki; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; Borusan Contemporary Art Collection, Istanbul; and Asia Society Museum, New York, among others.
