"Waterfall of Light on the Slope" is a baptismal opening
After the opening show, go to see more works
The first work that entered the venue was a display titled "Waterfall of Light on the Slope". The artwork is based on teamLab's artwork "Waterfall of Light - Deep Mountains in Shikoku", which uses light to hit water particles to form a waterfall and flow down the river, slowly walking uphill to feel the flow of water. The act of washing your feet is as if you have been baptized, and you will be able to enter a new experience facility in the future.
"Endless Crystal Universe", the beautiful atmosphere is like a MV scene
Then come to the three-dimensional world of "Endless Crystal Universe", where the crystal refracts light in the space and turns into shining points of light, changing colors and shadows along the way, presenting a variety of atmospheres. And through the infinite extension of the mirrors on the ground and walls, it is as if entering a near-future world. In addition, the viewer can also project the selected image into the creative space through the mobile phone APP, so that the light point changes and interacts, becoming a growing work.
A three-dimensional world made of crystals
It is also possible to take silhouettes for another aesthetic
"A soft black hole – your body becomes a space that affects another body", and feel the interaction between space and body
Walk on soft ground
Stepping into this slightly dark work, "A Soft Black Hole - Your Body Becomes a Space That Affects Another Body", the more you are in a desert, the more you want to move forward, the easier it is to sink, and you may even get up with one foot. As people walk, the shape of the space also changes, and then the path that affects another person is not necessarily, which is used to awaken people living in the concrete jungle of the city and reawaken the perception of the body.
"The Water Surface Picture depicted by Koi Dancing with People - Infinity" is a beautiful painting of light and shadow on the water
Being in the water, interact with the koi to form a light and shadow trajectory
"Infinite Water Scene depicted by Koi Dancing with People" is a work created by the viewer and the image of a koi fish on the water, walking barefoot into the water that submerges to the calf, and the colorful koi swim in it, and after coming into contact with people, they will be transformed into seasonal flowers, such as autumn leaves in autumn and cherry blossoms in spring. The attracted koi fish transform into a black hole-like circle, and stand in it to admire the light and shadow trails of the fish as they swim, and through the reflection of the mirror, the image seems to extend to infinity.
Interact with koi fish swimming on the water
When you touch a koi, it scatters and turns into seasonal flowers
These images are not recorded in advance, but interact with the fish through the crowd walking into the water, and the koi fish disappear and reappear because of the people, and every moment cannot be recreated, which makes people feel amazing and precious.
Touch and experience "Life is the crystallization of fleeting light"
A sparkling crystal
From the surface of the koi water above, you can lead to a new work area, "Life is the Crystallization of Fleeting Light," which looks like a jewel and shines from a distance. When you touch it with your hand, it seems to be able to grasp the flowing crystals, like a fleeting moment of eternity in life.
Feel the sound and light in "a changing space, an expanding three-dimensional existence: 3 flattened colors and 9 ambiguous colors".
After entering the "Changing Space, Expanding Three-Dimensional Existence – 3 Flattened Colors and 9 Ambiguous Colors", there are various floating huge spheres, which change colors and emit unique sounds by touching, slapping, and moving, and the spheres are also affected by each other, constantly spreading, transmitting, changing and merging with each other.
Enter a huge space made up of spheres
By pushing the sphere, the shape of the space is changed
It is worth noting that there are 12 colors that are constantly altered by the three colors of blue, red, and green in the space, as well as the nine traditional Japanese colors that appear when the sphere glows, such as light in the water, sunlight through aquatic plants, morning glow, morning sky, dusk sky, peach fruit, plum fruit, iris flower, and spring maple leaves.
It's like being in a kaleidoscope, "floating in the world of falling flowers"
A kaleidoscopic world of falling flowers
The work "Floating in the World of Falling Flowers", which takes beauty to a new level, expresses the cycle of flowers blooming and falling through the flowers of the four seasons, and while sitting or lying on the ground, looking at the constantly moving pictures around them, they unconsciously seem to be floating in the air, and their thoughts are also ethereal.
Sit back and watch the flowers bloom and fall
Different kinds of flowers will bloom in the space throughout the year
In this work, you can also use the teamLab app to project the image of the butterfly, so that you can see the beautiful scene of butterflies and flowers dancing in the picture. This work is not pre-recorded, but is drawn in real time using computer CG, and the ups and downs of each moment are precious for each session.
A beautiful immersive space experience "Floating Garden – Flowers and I have the same roots, and the garden and I become one"
Lying in the space made of flowers, it is as if you are one with the garden
Then we came to the most popular exhibition area in the venue, "Floating Garden: Flowers and I have the same roots, and the garden is one with me", where flowers are arranged in a space full of flowers, and the flowers will slowly float and rise as people enter, which is beautiful and dreamy.
Before people enter the exhibition hall, the flower cluster space surrounded by flowers
As you interact with people, the flower clusters rise and float
The concept of the work is to immerse people in the flowers, to become one with the flowers, and to see the flowers when people see them. In addition, the orchid flowers used in the space do not need soil but absorb moisture from the air to grow, and will emit different degrees of floral fragrance depending on the time of day.
The atmosphere is different at any given moment, "The small universe that echoes in the moss garden - solidified light color, sunrise and sunset"
This exhibition is full of a large number of egg-shaped objects, because they are displayed outdoors, they will change their appearance due to wind and rain, and the atmosphere will change with the sunrise and sunset, and at night there will be as many as 61 changes in "solidified light color", which will be endlessly extended with the sound of interaction with people.
Pillar of fire in the night, "a world of flame particles gushing out of the sky"
When you come to the exhibition at night, you can light up the entrance like a pillar of fire at night
The flaming red pillar standing in front of the entrance is a work called "The World of Flame Particles Erupting from the Sky", and you don't need to enter to see it. When a person approaches, a black image is created, which changes the shape of the flame. If you want to enjoy this work more deeply, it is recommended to download the exclusive APP "Distributed Fire" first, which is used to receive and transmit fire images!
Multi-purpose "one-line bench"
Benches connected by a line
This installation is composed of a single line and can be used as a place for reading and resting. Since it is located outdoors, if you order food in the restaurant area, you can also take it here to eat.
▋ Artistic "Vegetarian Menu"
TeamLab会 的 拉 UZU style
The variety of donuts is also very tempting
Even if you don't have to go to the exhibition, you can enjoy a bowl of popular vegetarian ramen at the "Vegan Ramen UZU Tokyo" located at the venue! The soup base is made with oat milk without milk, Japanese miso, white sesame seeds, ginger, garlic, and fresh vegetables. Ice cream, doughnuts, and a variety of teas are also available as afternoon snacks.
1 out of every 10 people who have seen it and been voted "Asia's Most Iconic Tourist Attraction 2023" by the World Travel Awards, the Oscar of the travel industry, is definitely a must-see location for the next Tokyo FIT trip.
