I Know Myself Through the Flow

The Ethereal Body of Flowers

Universe of Water Particles

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.

Seasonal flowers bloom and slowly change. Animals are born from those flowers. The flowers continue to bloom and die in an eternal cycle, forming the shapes of animals.

When visitors touch the animals, the flower petals scatter. If visitors touch the animals too much, all of the flowers will scatter, and the animals will die and fade away.

Like Continuous Life and Death, the artwork is created by a computer program that continuously renders the work in real time. The images you see at this moment can never be seen again.

A playful and colourful interactive artwork that is projected onto a slide.

Visitors become a beam of life-giving sunlight, and as they glide down the slope, their energy is transferred to the fruit field, causing flowers and fruit to blossom and grow. As the different elements interact in the field, new seeds are sown, leading to new life.

An interactive artwork showcasing water’s properties as it flows down a slope.

As visitors climb the steps up the hill, they impart energy to the water, causing the flowing stream to break apart into bouncing water droplets. This highlights how water behaves differently in its various forms, changing dynamically in response to its environment.

The little people are a community of miniature characters interacting with one another, paying little attention to the world outside.

However, when you place your hand or an object on the table, the little people will notice and respond. Their actions change according to the shape and colour of the objects, becoming more animated as more objects are added to their world.

Inside the world of the wall, a community of little people run around inside, oblivious to us.

However, when you attach various stamps of mushrooms, sheep barns or long sticks of ice to the wall, these objects materialise in the world of the little people. Watch the little people happily slide, jump, climb and play with the objects in delight.

Create a picture by drawing lines with a light pen or make shapes with a light stamp. See your artwork come alive in the little people’s world, where each colour holds a special power.

Draw with those around you and experiment with lots of stamps. Together, you can create a new world in the little people’s universe, granting them various powers and fuelling their playful energy.

This iconic installation features a digitally rendered, aquatic world of underwater animals.

Participants of all ages use their imagination to create fantastic and colourful sea creatures on paper. They are then digitally scanned and brought to life to swim freely in the aquarium where they live.

The sea creatures transcend the physical boundaries of the museum and swim out into exhibitions around the world. Similarly, sea creatures drawn in other parts of the world may appear and swim into the Sketch Aquarium: Connected World right in front of you

In Sketch Umwelt World, visitors are invited to colour their own aeroplane, butterfly, dolphin or hawk on the paper provided and see their creations appear digitally in the artwork.

Visitors can then use provided tablet devices provided to experience the world from the perspective of the animal or aeroplane that they drew. Aeroplanes represent human vision, butterflies have a 340-degree field of vision, dolphins perceive the world mostly through echolocation, and hawks can focus their vision on two things at once.

Aerial Climbing is an interactive artwork created from horizontal bars of varying colours, projection, coloured light and sound. Suspended by rope, the bars appear to float in space. People can use these bars to navigate carefully through the artwork. The bars are linked, so every movement will affect other bars and also the people who are standing on them. Everyone’s experience will differ depending on the route chosen and how many other people are climbing at the same time. The artwork explores the aerial dance of swooping, intricately coordinated patterns of birds in the sky, a phenomenon known as murmuration.

This monumental, immersive and interactive artwork by teamLab, puts you at the heart of the Universe, enabling you to experience astrophysical phenomena such as planets, stars and galaxies.
 

Inspired by Pointillism, which is a painting technique that uses an accumulation of dots of colour to create a picture, Crystal Universe uses points of light to create three-dimensional images in space.
 

Visitors can use their smartphones to access a website to select different astrophysical phenomena that then appear in the Crystal Universe. These phenomena are reborn in three dimensions, creating the artwork. The presence of people and their location within the work affects the three-dimensional images, which in turn influence and are influenced by other phenomena that appear in the space.

Create a paper airplane and fly it into an interactive light sculpture.
 

In this artwork, teamLab creates a sculpture formed by a collection of light that flows continuously mid-air.
 

The flight path of each airplane affects the colour, shape, and sound of the artwork, creating a visual and aural spectacle. As the light sculpture cycles through a series of scenes, each scene provides a different set of responses to the paper airplanes.
