Peter Morton, Journey without borders (People 2021)

This series was shot in Tokyo at an art installation called “teamLab Borderless.” Artworks move out of rooms, communicate with other works and intermingle with each other with no boundaries. Visitors move from room to room, into the installations, become participants and then part of the art itself. Borders disappear. A museum without a map; a complex, three dimensional 10,000 sq metre world. As you enter the exhibition, luminous virtual cocoons appear on your clothing, as if humans have become the artists' canvases. They then hatch into butterflies as the artwork moves to the surrounding space and walls. Place a hand on a butterfly and it disappears. Walk toward a digital waterfall behind a small mound, and it suddenly cascades around you and you become part of the exhibit. Here we see the journey of one visitor as she enters the exhibition, moves through it from room to room, becoming immersed in colour and movement and finally reaching a mound with other visitors, similarly enthralled by the experience, which may or may not be over.
