DISPLAYTITLE
teamLab Planets TOKYO DMM.com is an art facility that utilizes digital technology and was established by teamLab and DMM.com. It is located in 6-chome, Toyosu, Koto-ku, Tokyo.

## Overview

"DMM.Planets Art by teamLab" was first held in Odaiba in 2016 and then scaled up and opened in Shin-Toyosu, with an original exhibition period set from 7 July 2018 until the end of 2020. It comprises 4 large-scale artwork spaces and 2 gardens created by art collective teamLab. By immersing the entire body with other people in these massive “Body Immersive” artworks, the boundary between the body and the artwork dissolves, the boundaries between the self, others, and the world become something continuous, and we explore a new relationship without boundaries between ourselves and the world.
In the third year since its opening, the "Garden" was added on July 2, 2021 with the addition of two large garden works. The first of which being a garden filled with countless orchids blooming in the air, that rise and fall as the viewer approaches. The second of the two new exhibitions is a moss garden with brilliant egg-shaped sculptures whose appearance changes based on the time of day.
Customers enter the museum barefoot to experience some of the artworks, as there are areas in which the customer will enter water. At the time of opening, the original exhibition period was until autumn 2020, but has since been extended several times. First until the end of 2022, again until the end of 2023, and then, due to the continued popularity of the exhibition, a further extension until the end of 2027.
