Four Artworks, Including New Artworks “I Know Myself Through the Flow” and “The Ethereal Body of Flowers”, Join teamLab Future World in Singapore, Further Expanding the Experience
New artworks are now on view at teamLab Future World, located in ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, from Saturday, August 29th.
The artworks unveiled include I Know Myself Through the Flow — where visitors discover themselves through the changes they cause in the flow — and The Ethereal Body of Flowers, where movement transforms flowers into spatiotemporal existences.
The experience at teamLab Future World has been further enhanced with the addition of Flow Reaches Far, where flows born from people's movements extend far and wide, and Universe of Water Particles, drawn by flows influenced by people in the space.
When a person moves, a flow is born, and that flow creates an influence that extends far and wide. The movement of other people will likewise create a flow, coming together and creating a vortex. The vortices change along with the flow.
When people stop, or if people leave the space, the flow will eventually disappear and nothing will exist in the space.
The flow in the artwork is expressed as a continuum of particles, and lines are drawn in three-dimensional space according to the trajectories of those particles. The accumulation of lines that represent the work are then flattened according to what teamLab calls Ultrasubjective Space.
An artwork created by the flow, which is changed through people and objects in the space.
teamLab Future World
Since its opening in 2011, ArtScience Museum has established itself as one of Asia’s leading cultural institutions that is dedicated to inspiring curiosity at the intersection of art, science, technology and culture. In this permanent exhibition which has welcomed close to five million visitors since launching in 2016, the creative threads that unite these disciplines are brought to life through immersive, interactive artworks by teamLab, an international art collective known for its pioneering use of digital technology as a medium for art.
Consisting of major art installations and interactive projects, it is an invitation to all to have fun, play and explore, but also to reflect on our own position relative to the world and other people.
teamLab Future World is organized into two sections: City in Nature and Exploring New Frontiers. Both sections use cutting-edge science and technology to create ever-changing, evolving environments, which visitors of all ages are invited to explore, and become part of. Taken as a whole, teamLab Future World is a place where art, science and technology meet, realizing Leonardo da Vinci's famous maxim, "everything connects".
