Ruptured Hotel Wall - Life Survives by the Power of Life II

teamLab, 2020, Digital Work, 60 min (loop), Source Calligraphy: Sisyu

The space consists of a VOLVO XC40, a ruptured wall, and teamLab's new work Life Survives by the Power of Life II. This space was built during the years of steep economic growth, but after a short period, it was abandoned, becoming a space-time where time had stopped completely. The forest, rocks, and caves of Mifuneyama Rakuen have formed over a long time, and people in every era have sought meaning in them over the millennia. It is the ongoing, continuous relationship between nature and humans that has made the border between the forest and garden ambiguous, keeping this cultural heritage beautiful and pleasing. By breaking through the walls that have divided this continuity, VOLVO XC40 reconnects the space to the continuity of the world and time, creating a place where various space-times intersect and overlap.
