Tokyo-based art & technology collective Teamlab seem to be everywhere at the moment with their interactive and immersive environments. This installation, Ever Blossoming Life II – Dark, part of a trio with Flutter of Butterflies Beyond Borders and Flowers & People, Cannot be Controlled but Live Together, was at Start Art Fair – they also had other work showing at Maison & Objet in Paris earlier in the month. Gently touching the walls made the evolving flowers disintegrate and reform in a never-ending cycle of generation and dissolution. All somewhat dreamlike.
Permutations are infinite and never-repeating. The photos give a hazy hint of the experience.
For another example of their work please look back at one of my earlier posts or visit their website for videos.
