Time-blossoming Flowers

Together at this time we inherit history and space; in the past, present, and future, people are connected and continue to connect. For this work teamLab wishes to express the continuing connections of people over time through endless blooming flowers.

This work is created continuously in real-time in increments of hours, days, and years.

Every hour, on the hour, all the flowers fall together in a shower of blossoms. The number of blooms then gradually increases throughout each hour. At 30 minutes past the hour, for example, about half of all the flowers are blooming.

The look of the work changes throughout the day. It grows light with the sunrise, glows with the sunset as the sun goes down, and grows dark as the night deepens. It works in sync with the actual sunrise and sunset every day at this location.

The flowers that are blooming vary throughout the year. They are always turning into different Japanese seasonal flowers to coincide with the passing seasons.

Just as the natural landscape is not the same twice, what we see in the artwork now, cannot be viewed twice. The picture is being created over time, and the picture that you see is always for the first time.

Traditional Japanese art is often referred to as being planar, but we at teamLab believe that there is a different logical construction of space to that of the perspective of the West. We call that  "Ultra Subjective Space". This work is based on that logic of Ultra Subjective Space. The world was constructed in three-dimensions, in three-dimensional space, and then it was made to be planar in line with what we believe to be the logical structure of spatial recognition of Japanese art.

※Some of the trees with flowers in this work have the motif of the holly tree, Ilex latifolia. When the underside of the leaves of this tree are scratched they leave a dark mark. As the mark remains for a long period of time it is said that the leaves were used to write on, and it is thought that this is the etymology of the japanese word for postcard (which consists of the characters for ‘leaf’ and ‘word”), and as to why it is sometimes called the Post Office tree. Ilex latifolia trees have existed in front of this JP Tower since the era of the Tokyo Central Post Office. The Ilex latifolia inside this work will change with the seasons, to flower and fruit.

teamLab
아트 컬렉티브 teamLab은 2001년 활동을 시작했다. 국경을 넘어선 연대 속에 집단 창작의 방식으로 예술, 과학, 테크놀로지 그리고 자연계의 교차점을 학제적 접근으로 모색한다. 아티스트, 프로그래머, 엔지니어, CG 애니메이터, 수학자, 건축가 등 다양한 분야의 전문가들로 구성된 teamLab은 예술을 통해 인간과 자연, 개인과 세계의 새로운 관계를 탐구하고 표현한다. teamLab은 우리에게 익숙한 모든 경계에 대해 질문한다. 인간은 각자를 둘러싼 바깥 세상을 감각 기관으로 인지해 스스로와 분리하고 낱낱을 경계지어 독립체로 구분하려 한다. 현대 문명은 그런 방식으로 세계를 이해해 왔다. teamLab은 예술을 통해 감각을 확장하고 개인과 세계의 경계, 시간의 연속성에 대한 인지의 경계를 넘어설 수 있다고 믿는다. 이 세계의 모든 것은 광대한 시간 속에, 생명의 끝없는 연속 안에 가까스로, 하지만 기적적으로 존재하고 있다. teamLab의 작품은 시드니 뉴사우스웨일스 주립 미술관, 애들레이드 사우스오스트레일리아 미술관, 샌프란시스코 아시아 미술관, 뉴욕 아시아 소사이어티, 이스탄불 보루산 현대 미술관, 멜버른 빅토리아 국립 미술관, 헬싱키 아모렉스가 영구 소장하고 있다. teamlab.art Biographical Documents teamLab is represented by Pace Gallery, Martin Browne Contemporary and Ikkan Art.
