“It is creativity that allows us to overcome problems that cannot be defined as either correct or incorrect.”

teamLab is an interdisciplinary art collective founded in 2001 in Tokyo, whose team includes several hundred specialists. At the heart of their practice lies the belief that everything exists in a long, fragile yet miraculous, borderless continuity. In order to understand the world around them, people separate it into independent entities with perceived boundaries between them. teamLab seeks to transcend these boundaries in our perception of the world, of the relationship between the self and the world, and of the continuity of time.
Their immersive installations fuse art and science to encourage meaningful interactions with both the work and other people. As we move around the space, our very presence—along with those of other participants—provoke flowers to bloom and waterfalls to change the course of their flow. We are reminded that there is strength in the collective and are invited to reconnect with the world and marvel at its beauty.
teamLab has several permanent museums and exhibitions globally including teamLab Borderless Tokyo, teamLab Borderless Shanghai, teamLab SuperNature Macao, with several more planned around the world in coming years. teamLab Borderless Tokyo was the most visited single-artist museum in its inaugural year, attracting 2.3 million visitors from over 160 countries and regions around the world. Works by teamLab are also featured in the permanent collections of the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; the Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide; the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco; the Asia Society Museum, New York; the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection, Istanbul; the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; and the Amos Rex, Helsinki.
