Tsai & Yoshikawa present ‘Daydream’, a series of six installations embedded through the garden spaces of Green Springs, Tachikawa City, Tokyo: Beyond Cascade, Welcome Hugs, Stroll Mountain Water, Bliss of Luxuriance, Fly to Dream, and Drop of Light-Willow.

These immersive artworks interact with their environment to create a fantasy garden, offering visitors a three-dimensional, multi-sensory experience. From Alice in Wonderland to ornaments commonly found in oriental gardens, ‘Daydream’ creates an enchanting realm where diverse imaginations intertwine.

‘Figures and fantasies, happy thoughts and hopes unfurl in the waking mind. Is this the future or the past? It is here that dreamers are freed from the world for a while and roam freely. In a paradise you've never seen, you encounter amazing creatures. And before you know it, you will be reborn like a phoenix, glowing anew in the darkness. You discover and rejoice, free and playful, living your inner daydream.’
