Invited Works

「AD ASTRA」
THE FOX, THE FOLKS

We are all born from the same source, we all live and learn from our surroundings.
Sometimes it takes courage to dream and to do something different, something no one else is doing.
We must have a clear idea of what we want to accomplish and make the utmost effort to face any difficulties or problems.
First, we must realize that our greatest enemy is ourselves and face it.
Accept where you are, where you belong, and who you are.
Let us be prepared to start moving toward the stars, to shine, and to contemplate the difficulties ahead.
And take pride in the fact that we have overcome all difficulties.
Everyone sees us shining to get closer to our own dreams.
We break out of our molds in every area.
And then we move on to the next dream. Because, after all, we are the shining stars of our own lives.

「System」
Yuta Okuyama

We focused on the organic behavior of the system itself, which interacts with each other and maintains equilibrium as if it were alive.

This work attempts to find beauty in complex interactions by constructing a computer simulation of an object composed of primitive shapes, visualizing and exaggerating its response to force and the resulting movement's effect on space.

Festival of Light Area

  • Introduction PORTAL of LIGH

    A journey of light begins as you pass through a portal of light that leads you from the everyday world to an extraordinary one. Surrounded by neon colors as it links to digital sound art, the flickering and twinkling lights evoke the sensation of gradually melting into the world of light, beyond which the TOKYO LIGHTS logo objet d'art will appear.


  • Chapter 1 The Sea - AWAKEN THE SENSES -

    A sea of light appears, combining Japan's cutting-edge fiber beam technology (special laser) and visual effects. Projected images of sea creatures will create the sensation of swimming in the deep sea, and visitors can experience immersive entertainment with light and sound.


  • Chapter 2 The Forest - FEEL THE VOICES -

    Nature, where the past, present, and future coexist. Listening to this forest of light, one can feel the voices of the diverse life forms that watch over and coexist with our lives. Performers from Japan and abroad will express the beauty of life through graceful and brilliant performances, creating a mystical space.


  • Chapter 3 The Sky - CONNECT WITH THE WORLD -

    The last stop on the journey of light is a sky of infinite light. In a space designed with light objects and fiber beams, visitors can enjoy food and drinks while watching the public viewing of the International Projection Mapping Competition.
