Digital artwork

TeamLab creates digital artwork which is based on the concept of borderless, and integrates advanced technologies into its creation. The exhibitions are powered by EPSON digital technology. [3]

TeamLab projects aim to show the relationship between nature and artificial creations, immersing the recipient’s body in an interactive world.

TeamLab Borderless museum features a collaborative creative space Future Park and EN Tea House.

Steve Aoki described the museum as “a virtual reality/augmented reality/fantasy theme park.”[4][5]
