TOMORROW IS THE QUESTION

"Tomorrow is the Question" is an extensive and ambitious presentation of international contemporary art. At the core of "Tomorrow is the Question" is the issue about our common future. Via sculptures, video works, installations, and interactive works, the artists address the changes and challenges in terms of resources currently facing humanity. The exhibition unfolds a range of scenarios for our future and invites a dialogue on the subject.

The exhibition features works by artists including Doug Aitken, Allora & Calzadilla, Edward Burtynsky, Julian Charrière, Simon Denny, Cao Fei, Mona Hatoum, Alfredo Jaar, Raqs Media Collective, Tomás Saraceno, Hito Steyerl, teamLab, Rirkrit Tiravanija, and Qiu Zhijie.

OPERE

Flowers and People, Cannot be Controlled but Live Together - Transcending Boundaries, A Whole Year per Hour

This artwork is in continuous change, over a period of one hour a seasonal year of flowers blossoms and scatters.

Flowers are born, grow, bloom, and eventually scatter and die.The cycle of birth and death repeats itself in perpetuity. If people stay still more flowers are born, if people touch the flowers and walk around the flowers scatter all at once.

This artwork is in continuous change, neither a prerecorded animation nor on loop. The work is rendered in real time by a computer program. The interaction between the viewer and the installation causes continuous change in the artwork; previous visual states can never be replicated, and will never reoccur.

The artwork influences other works and flowers scatter due to the influence of other works.

In spring in the Kunisaki Peninsula, there are many cherry blossoms in the mountains and canola blossoms at their base. This experience of nature caused teamLab to wonder how many of these flowers were planted by people and how many were native to the environment. It is a place of great serenity and contentment, but the expansive body of flowers is an ecosystem influenced by human intervention, and the boundary between the work of nature and the work of humans is unclear. Rather than nature and humans being in conflict, a healthy ecosystem is one that includes people. In the past, people understood that they could not grasp nature in its entirety, and that it is not possible to control nature. People lived more closely aligned to the rules of nature that created a comfortable natural environment. We believe that these valleys hold faint traces of this premodern relationship with nature that once existed, and we hope to explore a form of human intervention based on the premise that nature cannot be controlled.

Universe of Water Particles, Transcending Boundaries

Water is represented by a continuum of numerous water particles. The interaction between the particles is calculated and then lines are drawn in relation to the behavior of the water particles. The lines are “flattened” using what teamLab considers to be ultrasubjective space. 

When a person stands on the waterfall they obstruct the flow of water like a rock, and the flow of water changes. The flow of water continues to transform due to the interaction of people. Previous visual states can never be replicated, and will never reoccur. 

The flow of the waterfall influences other artworks.

ARTISTA

teamLab

teamLab (f. 2001) is an international art collective. Their collaborative practice seeks to navigate the confluence of art, science, technology, and the natural world. Through art, the interdisciplinary group of specialists, including artists, programmers, engineers, CG animators, mathematicians, and architects, aims to explore the relationship between the self and the world, and new forms of perception.

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 perceptions of the world, of the relationship between the self and the world, and of the continuity of time. Everything exists in a long, fragile yet miraculous, borderless continuity.

teamLab’s works are in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide; National Gallery of Australia, Canberra;  Amos Rex, Helsinki; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; Borusan Contemporary Art Collection, Istanbul; and Asia Society Museum, New York, among others.
