teamLab SuperNature Macao
One of the largest in the world, teamLab SuperNature at The Venetian Macao is an immersive interactive experience like no other and a guaranteed good time for visitors of all ages. The striking installations make for a great and fun way for kids to better understand the connection between themselves and the world around them, and, in a broader plan, the relationship between humans and nature. Unlike other contemporary exhibitions, at teamLab SuperNature Macao visitors are encouraged to interact with the installations by pushing, pressing, jumping, sliding, and sinking! The Multi Jumping Universe featuring an ever-changing stellar floating surface where kids sink in and jump around, and Sketch Ocean, where they get to draw a fish and see it come to life, swimming out into the ocean in front of them, are some of the most-loved artworks by kids.
