4installations-
Proliferating Immense Life – A Whole Year per Year
This installation by teamLab depicts flowers that gently bloom and die in tune with the four seasons of the year, in real time. They bud, grow, and blossom, before their petals begin to wither and eventually fade away. The artwork is both generative, in that the flowers are created live, and reactive, in that they respond to the presence of visitors, and subtly change, based on what they do. When touched, the flower petals scatter and disappear. But if visitors stay still, the flowers grow and bloom more abundantly. -
100 Years Sea [running time: 100 Years]
This video work depicts the raising sea levels brought by climate change. It is based on scientific data derived from the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), which predicts the raising of the world's sea levels over a century. By combining the elegance and beauty of traditional East Asian art with contemporary scientific data, it illustrates the rising sea level over a period of 100 years, bringing to our attention the inevitable catastrophic change on the oceans, should urgent action not be taken. -
Transcending Boundaries artworks
Comprised of six artworks, this immersive and interactive installation space explores the role of digital technology in transcending the physical and conceptual boundaries that exist between the artworks as well as the viewer. The installation space is evocative of a natural environment rendered entirely digitally, with the imagery of one work breaking free of its frame and entering the space of another, dissolving literal boundaries. -
Sliding through the Fruit Field
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.

Sketch Piston – Playing Music
A playful and colourful interactive artwork that is projected on a slide.
Cooperate and inspire one another to create music and create a vibrant, animated and lively environment. -
A Table Where Little People Live
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 jump onto it. Their actions change according to the shape and colour of the objects, becoming more animated as more objects are added to their world.

Inverted Globe, Giant Connecting Block Town
Design your own transportation network and develop your own vibrant, thriving cityscape.
The installation features projections of moving cars, trains, planes and boats onto a large surface. Use the different giant blocks to design and connect an evolving system of roads, rivers and railways to keep the ever-increasing traffic flowing smoothly.
-
Sketch Aquarium
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.

Exploring New Frontiers
Exploring New Frontiers continues the narrative from City in a Garden where humanity’s harmonious co-existence with nature has equipped people with the necessary technology and imagination to dream about exploring the sky and beyond.Featured Installations
4installations-
Sketch Flight
In Sketch Flight, you can colour your aeroplane, butterfly, or hawk on the paper provided and see the picture you have drawn appear flying through the world on the giant screen in front of you. You can use a tablet device to control the flight of your aeroplane, butterfly, or hawk. Look at the tablet device screen and you can even see the world from the point of view of the animal or plane that you drew! -
Aerial Climbing through a Flock of Colored Birds
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 others 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 in the sky, a phenomenon known as murmuration. -
Autonomous Abstraction, Continuous Phenomena from the Universe to the Self
This new installation explores the phenomenon of self-organisation or spontaneous order. Self-organisation occurs in the universe when different natural rhythms influence each other and slowly synchronize. Self-organisation can be seen in many systems, from physics, to biology, to physiology and ecosystems. In the field of astronomy, scientists believe that entropy in the universe – or the lack of order – will steadily increase and that all astronomical entities will eventually collapse. -
Crystal Universe
Behold a seemingly infinite number of light points inside the scintillating Crystal Universe bringing you into an illusion of stars moving in space.
Change the fabric of the universe with the smart devices within the installation.
