In "Matrix" at Teshima Art Museum, water trickles out from the ground, here and there, throughout the day. As light, wind, and the voices of birds- on occasion also rain, snow, and bugs- enter through the two openings and come in resonance with each other, an infinity of expressions is revealed as time passes.

The droplet-shaped architecture of Teshima Art Museum was designed by architect Ryue Nishizawa. The structure measures about 40 meters by 60 meters, with a maximum height of 4.5 meters. It is a low concrete-shell structure without pillars or columns to support it. The surrounding nature directly flows through the two openings into its organic and horizontal interior space. All the plants used here are indigenous weeds growing on Teshima so that the museum becomes part of the environment of the Karato area. Walking along the promenade leading to the museum, one can enjoy the beautiful view and learn about the history of the area.
