reservation. When you pour a pot of tea on, the tea begins to flicker and play tones in a unique rhythm. Eventually, the nearby tea leaves will attract each other, and the rhythm of light and tone will align. teamLab《Resonating Tea – Dynamic Equilibrium Color》(C) teamLab “Team Lab: Grasslands of Wind, Rain, and Sun” Concept We received a request from a can-can factory in an industrial area to place art in the newly expanded can-can factory. Therefore, we decided to demolish part of the site and make it into a grassland. A grassy grassland in a vacant lot in a factory area. The wind returned, the rain spread, and the sun increased. When the wind blows strongly, the wind makes the work appear, When the rain falls in the darkness, it becomes a work of art, When the sun rises high, the sun produces works. teamLab proposes an “environmental
phenomenon.” A work cannot exist by itself; the environment creates the phenomenon, and that phenomenon is the existence of the work. The things that humans have created so far are made of matter, just like stones, and have stable structures of their own. Unlike such things, the existence of a work is created by the environment. Existence will be liberated from the substances that have been responsible for existence up until now, and ordinary things such as air, water, and light will become phenomena due to unique
environments, and these phenomena will become existence. And the boundaries of its existence are vague and continuous. Even if people destroy the work, as long as the environment is maintained, the work will continue to exist. Conversely, if the environment is not maintained, the work will disappear. People’s consciousness will expand from existence itself to the environment. A stone continues to exist even if it is placed in a sealed box, cut off from the outside world, but life cannot maintain its existence if it is placed in such a closed box. Life is also an entity that is sustained by the environment. Life may be a miraculous phenomenon in a continuous flow within an open world. Works during the day (part) On a day when there is no wind and no clouds, when the sun is at its highest point of the day, the sun creates a rainbow-colored, full circle for those who climb up the Stairs for the Sun in the meadow. teamLab《Enso of the Sun》(C) teamLab

When the sun sets, it shines. teamLab《Sky calligraphy of wind and sun》(C) teamLab The tiny light born in the darkness returns to the darkness. teamLab《Life is a minute light born in a sea of darkness》(C) teamLab At night, the light in the rocks solidifies and fuses together. And it changes depending on people’s behavior. teamLab《Sea of the Sun》(C) teamLab teamLab: Grasslands of wind, rain, and sun
