teamLab: Infinite Existence | teamLab

Leaping tigers, blossoming flowers, and a medieval city beset by plague. In this latest exhibition, the lines between reality, history and mythology begin to dissolve. In its place, something beautiful and mysterious emerges – an endless realm of infinite existence.

Titled teamLab: Infinite Existence, this solo exhibition marks the first exhibition hosted by Singapore-based art platform Supper House featuring the internationally renowned collective teamLab. Centered around eight unique and dynamic works, the exhibition explores teamLab’s myriad creative inspirations, drawing upon vibrant art histories to conjure visions of limitless beauty. In particular, the exhibition adopts a curatorial focus on the concept of "Ultrasubjective Space" (chõshukan kūkan 超主観空間), in which the boundaries between the real world and the artwork’s interior space are collapsed, creating a single, seamless reality. Inspired by compositional techniques found in premodern East Asian narrative scrolls and painted screens, teamLab has embraced “ultrasubjective space” as a way of refiguring the relationship between viewer and artwork, empowering viewers to chart their own movements through the artwork’s space, thus creating an aesthetic experience that is unique to each individual.

Well known for pushing boundaries of contemporary technology, teamLab nevertheless centres the human experience at the core of its practice. Viewers are invited to gaze upon the ebb and flow of waves and waterfalls; to bear witness to the rise and fall of human civilization; to quietly meditate upon the slow passage of deep geological time. In these dark and uncertain times, the artist collective gently encourages us to become active observers of our own universes, uncovering beauty in everyday moments and ordinary scenes.
