KUALA LUMPUR: The body-immersive museum by art collective teamLab in Toyosu, Japan, teamLab Planets TOKYO DMM (teamLab Planets) has renewed its artwork spaces, making it an even more mesmerising experience, in conjunction with its fifth anniversary celebration.

A museum where visitors walk through water, and a garden where they become one with the flowers, teamLab Planets comprises four large-scale artwork spaces and two gardens created by art collective teamLab.

The museum drew approximately one million visitors from 182 countries and regions outside of Japan from March to August this year, which makes up 70 per cent of the museum's total number of visitors, according to a statement.

It has also been reported that approximately one in 10 visitors to Japan from overseas are visiting teamLab Planets.

This year, teamLab Planets unveils its new installation of 'Ephemeral Solidified Light', the innumerable masses of light floating in the air, each one composed of multiple colours caused by extreme synchronisation.

Moreover, the celebration features renewal of 'The Infinite Crystal Universe', an artwork that creates a three-dimensional sculpture from a collection of light points whereby visitors can participate in the work using the teamLab app and create the artwork together with other people in the space.

An installation filled with spheres of light that change to ambiguous colours through people's interactions, 'Expanding Three-dimensional Existence in Transforming Space', and several other artwork spaces have also been renewed, furthering the experience of physically immersing the entire body.

In addition, teamLab Planets, which was originally scheduled to close at the end of 2023, has been extended to the end of 2027 due to the popularity of the museum.
