Here's something to look forward to.

Japanese art collective teamLab will be putting up a new exhibition at Gardens by the Bay soon.

If you have not heard of them, you probably will be familiar with their works at the Art Science Museum previously:

sparkling exhibition

Titled #futuretogether, the exhibition will feature lots of trippy sound and light artwork that might leave you in awe.

The exhibition will be held both indoors and outdoors. The outdoor artwork will be available for viewing from Dec. 15, 2019.

The exhibition's indoor artwork will be available for viewing from Jan. 16, 2020.

Here's a peek at what the exhibition has to offer

Titled "Autonomous Resonating Life on the Water and Resonating Trees - Dragonfly Lake", this sprawling artwork comprises ovoids of light which changes colour when it is pushed. 

It also emits tones specific to that colour, creating a resonating sound and light show.

According to teamLab, light resonating from the other side signifies the presence of people or local animals.  

"Perhaps people will become more aware of the existence of other living things in the same space," they wrote.

This rather aptly named "Flowers and People - Giant Lattice Mass" is a giant structure on which computer program-rendered flowers bloom and scatter.

"When people come close and move around, the flowers scatter. But when people approach and remain still, the flowers bloom more abundantly than usual," wrote the art collective. 

The "Message Pillar" might not look like much in real life, but if you look at it using the Message Pillar smartphone app, you will be able to see words floating around the pole.

You can also use the app to send your own message too. The words will join up to form a tree.

Aside from these outdoor exhibits, you can also check out indoor artwork like a continually blooming and dying wall of flowers or watch flowers bloom in a cup of tea at the En Tea House.
