EXPERIENCE NATURE

IN A WHOLE NEW LIGHT

BLOOMING WONDERS invites you on a sensorial journey through a living digital garden where nature and technology coexist. Across immersive environments, from interactive floral fields to infinity rooms blooming beneath your feet, each installation transforms natural motifs into vibrant, ever-evolving expressions of art. Movement, sound, and touch become transformation tools, allowing guests to awaken blossoms, shift dimensions, or trigger surreal dreamscapes in real time.

This is not just a walk through digital beauty, it’s a rediscovery of wonder. By reimagining botanical life through pixels, mirrors, and AI, BLOOMING WONDERS reflects on our connection to the natural world: ephemeral, interactive, and infinitely blooming.

Crystal Bloom

ARTECHOUSE Studio

Where koi glide and dragonflowers rise, the summer air turns to crystal…
Suspended in a seamless circular loop, Crystal Bloom invites viewers to drift upward into an endless wreath of iridescent glass flora and fantastical koi. At its heart, a crystalline dragon flower weaves a slow, mesmerizing journey, guiding the eye through blooming forms that shimmer with artificial elegance. Part botanical, part dreamscape, the piece offers a moment of visual air conditioning—cool, radiant, and mindlessly meditative. In this garden of light and illusion, nature and artifice entwine in a summertime trance of color and calm.

PIXELBLOOM: Timeless Butterflies

ARTECHOUSE Studio

PIXELBLOOM Timeless Butterflies places audiences in a vivid Butterfly dream that begins with the signaling of spring—the blooming of the cherry blossoms. From there, the dream travels through various panoramas of exotic spring blooms as part of a flock of butterflies, ending up in a hurricane of petals—a scene that touches the viscera of the audience, reminding them of the fleeting exuberance of nature’s exquisite gifts.

Digital Flower Experiments

Mei Tamazawa x ARTECHOUSE Studio

Designed in the spirit of a science lab, ARTECHOUSE Studio adapted Mei Tamazawa’s “Digital Flower Experiments” into an interactive format where visitors can kindle their experimental spirit through real-time video processing interactives.

Blooming Field

Mei Tamazawa x ARTECHOUSE Studio

Light and celebratory, this digital installation features Mei Tamazawa’s beautiful blooming flower field on a large scale that looks ready to be jumped into. ARTECHOUSE’s XR app further augments the installation, allowing visitors to open a digital portal in this flower field and release a flock of butterflies, further connecting the physical to the digital.

Milkweed Accord

ARTECHOUSE Studio

A milkweed bloom becomes an improbable landing site for dozens of Monarch butterflies. Still, surreal, and almost too perfect to touch. But a visitor approaches, the stillness shatters: the butterflies lift off in unison, fluttering to a neighboring screen in a quiet, playful escape.

Milkweed Accord turns interaction into a metaphor for ecological delicacy, an ever-shifting choreography between presence and retreat. Through motion-sensing technology, it invites us to consider the fragile relationships that sustain life, and how even the smallest gesture can echo through the living world.

Blooming Strings

ARTECHOUSE Studio

Blooming Strings transforms the two displays into dynamic, interactive musical instruments. Originally conceived for LG Display’s unique transparent OLEDs, this version reimagines the experience on two displays on the wall. Visitors become the players, and each step makes flowers bloom and produces sound. As you move across the vine-covered visuals, your movement strums these blossoms, coaxing them to “sing” in a symphony of notes.

The installation plays with magnetism and motion, drawing inspiration from Monarch butterflies’ migratory patterns. Here, the visitor’s movement guides the energy flow, much like how the butterflies follow unseen magnetic fields. What once was a fleeting natural phenomenon is now a digital symphony powered by interaction and the beauty of nature.

Blossoming Field

ARTECHOUSE Studio

Blossoming Field is an interactive digital installation that immerses visitors in a dynamic springtime landscape composed of cherry blossom trees, reflective orbs, bees, and honeycombs, all responsive to visitor movement. Through gentle sound design and visual feedback, the installation encourages active participation as visitors “pollinate” and awaken various elements of the environment.

Visitors can trigger blooming branches, rippling orbs, and honeybee movements through their proximity and gestures. It invites visitors of all ages to engage with a digitally reimagined spring ecosystem that comes alive through touchless interaction.

BloomFall: Through the Infinite

ARTECHOUSE Studio

Bloomfall: Through the Infinite is an interactive mirrored infinity room that invites visitors into an endless descent through shifting floral dimensions. With each step or sound, portals open beneath the visitor, revealing ever-evolving worlds of geometric plant life, like Rubik’s cubes blooming with moss, petals, and crystalline roots.

Reflected endlessly across mirrored walls, the illusion expands beyond space and time. Visitors float between symmetry and sensation, grounded only by the digital garden blooming below. Part perceptual play, part meditative drift, Bloomfall transforms the simple act of presence into a passage through nature reimagined—falling forever through a world without edge.

Akousmaflore et Lux

Scenocosme

Akousmaflore et Lux invites visitors into an interactive garden where living plants transform into musical instruments. Each plant responds to touch or proximity, creating a unique sound or melody, with the plant’s “song” shaped by electrostatic energy from the visitor. This invisible energy, generated by our bodies, becomes audible through the plants, revealing an unseen connection between us and the natural world.

As visitors interact with the plants, the sounds evolve in real-time, creating a constantly changing musical landscape. The experience invites reflection on how technology and nature can merge to create a sensory journey that reveals the hidden energies in our environment.

The installation explores the delicate balance between organic life and technology, offering a poetic glimpse into the invisible relationships that connect us to the world around us.

Collectible Scape

Saeko Ehara

Collectible Scape is a project focused on digitally preserving vanishing everyday landscapes and relics as digital art. Using 3D scanners and TouchDesigner, this series reinterprets disappearing scenes and objects from fresh perspectives. Since its inception in 2023, the project has captured a diverse array of subjects, playground equipment, wells, public telephones, incinerators, roadside flowers, flora, and fauna, highlighting the often-overlooked elements of daily life.

This work reflects traces of human life and progress, infused with a sense of transience and nostalgia. Inspired by the Zen concept of “hika rakuyou” (falling flowers and leaves), it portrays the inevitability of change and disappearance, showing that inorganic objects, like living things, are subject to the same fate. The aim is to preserve these scenes as memories for the future, inviting viewers to feel the connection between past, present, and future.

About Saeko Ehara: Saeko Ehara is a Kirakira (sparkling) artist and VJ based in Tokyo. Her works mainly represent Kirakira. In her latest works, she explores combining AI and Generative Art. She keeps learning and exploring the expressions of Kirakira with multiple ways.

Her inspiration comes from memories and joys of her childhood. She was into drawing, collecting Kirakira cards of her favorite Anime, stickers, toys, acrylic jewels, small glassworks and reading illustrated books of flowers. She was so enthusiastic that she always forgot the time passed when she did her favorite things. Visit Saeko on her website, or follow her on Instagram at @sko.hr.
