BY Magali Robathan
TeamLab Planets in Tokyo has unveiled a major expansion, introducing several new immersive, interactive digital art spaces, as well as F&B and retail.
The expansion increases TeamLab Planets' floor area by 1.5 times and introduces new exhibits themed around educational projects.
These include Athletics Forest, Catching and Collecting Forest and collaborative co-creation space, Future Park.
Catching and Collecting Forest sees visitors use their smartphones to 'capture' and study extinct animals.
Athletics Forest is a creative space based on the concept of understanding the world through the body and thinking about the world three-dimensionally.
“Humans perceive the world with their bodies and think with their bodies," said TeamLab founder Toshiyuki Inoko.
"This is a space where people can perceive art with their physical body."
In 2024, TeamLab Planets set the Guinness World Record for the world’s most visited museum dedicated to a single group or artist.
