Digital art collective teamLab and the Enoshima Aquarium in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, have launched a collaboration featuring digital light flowers projected into a large tank.
The event merges marine biology with immersive art to provide visitors with a seasonal experience. By projecting light onto the water and the fish swimming within it, the installation seeks to fuse the natural ecology of the ocean with modern digital expression.
The exhibition is held during the night hours of early summer 2026 [1]. The visual experience centers on the interaction between live aquatic animals and the simulated floral projections, creating an environment where fish appear to swim alongside glowing petals.
This collaboration is part of a broader effort by teamLab to integrate art into public and natural spaces. While some reports have mentioned similar events at other locations, this specific installation is hosted at the Enoshima Aquarium [2].
The event was highlighted in a broadcast on June 4, 2026 [1]. Visitors can observe the interplay of light and water, which changes based on the movement and presence of the fish in the tank.

This installation represents the growing trend of 'experiential art' in Japan, where technology is used to enhance traditional tourist attractions. By combining living ecosystems with projection mapping, the aquarium shifts from a purely educational facility to a multisensory art gallery, potentially increasing nighttime tourism and engagement with marine conservation through aesthetic appeal.
