Flowers Bloom in an Infinite Universe inside a Teacup

teamLab, 2016-, Interactive Digital Installation, Endless, Sound: Hideaki Takahashi

When a cup of tea is made, flowers bloom inside the teacup. When the teacup is lifted, the flower petals scatter and spread outside of the cup. Flowers bloom infinitely as long as there is tea. The tea in the teacup becomes an infinite world in which the flowers continue to bloom. Drink in the infinitely expanding world.

Tea is a transformative entity, and the size of the flowers that bloom will change depending on the amount of tea. The artwork is born only when there is tea. Once the tea is drunk, the work no longer exists.

The flowers blooming in the teacup change with the passage of real time.

The artwork is forever changing and the picture at this moment can never be seen again.
