Graffiti Nature: Lost, Immersed and Reborn

teamLab, 2018, Interactive Digital Installation, Sound: Hideaki Takahashi

All the various creatures drawn by everyone live in this space. 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 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 crocodiles eat the snakes, the snakes eat the lizards, the lizards eat the frogs, and the frogs eat the butterflies, each one propagating as they consume. 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. Crocodiles will die if people step on them too much.


As we immerse and meld ourselves into the work with others, we explore a continuity among people, as well as a new relationship that transcends the boundaries between people and the world. 

Background of Artwork

Ecosystem

More than 10 million living species are said to exist on Earth. Each and every one of these species lives while interacting with the others. Plants create nutrition from rain, soil, and the sunlight (photosynthesis). Animals eat those plants. These animals, in turn, are eaten by other animals. When animals die bacteria decompose their bodies, allowing plants to use them for nutrition.

All these living things and the habitat they live in is known as an “ecosystem”. Inside an ecosystem, everyone plays a specific role. Therefore, when an animal or plant greatly changes in number due to climate change or human intervention, the ecosystem’s balance is destroyed, thus affecting all that live inside it.
