NSK是日本最大的轴承制造商，也是全球最优秀的轴承厂商之一。在公司成立100周年之际，NSK在表参道螺旋花园举办了一场名为“动作感觉”的特殊展览，在运动中展现未来。为了能简洁而又美丽地表现NSK的技术，Emmanuelle以“色彩混合”为主题制造了一个大型装置，用轴承展示颜色的律动。

NSK Ltd. (one of the most prominent manufacturers of bearings globally and the largest in Japan) celebrated its 100th anniversary with a special exhibition, “SENSE OF MOTION”, held at the Omotesando Spiral with the vision of “SETTING THE FUTURE IN MOTION”. In order to convey the technology of NSK simply and beautifully, Emmanuelle presented a magnificent installation with the theme of “color mixing” to show the movement of colors using bearings.

装置沿着螺旋花园标志性的螺旋坡道设置，一百种颜色的花朵图形约有6米之高，充满了整个空间。在装置的中部设有一片圆形的空地，游客在这里将被色彩包围，彻底沉浸到颜色的世界中去。装置由25200个沿三维网格布置的花朵图形组成，这些图形被安装在垂直的轴上，顶端的风车根据循环器内设定的随机程序吹动轴承，带动整个装置旋转。图形的花瓣由不同颜色组成，当它们旋转起来的时候，这些颜色又会形成新的颜色。从坡道上看去，层层叠叠的颜色逐渐变化，带给游客丰富的视觉体验。

Along the form of the spiral slope symbolizes the Spiral Garden, the flower motifs in 100 shades of colors has saturated the space of about 6 m in height. In the middle of the installation, circular empty space allows visitors to be surrounded by colors and immerse themselves in the colorful world. The installation consists of 25200 flower motifs aligned in regular three dimensional grids. The flower motifs are attached to the vertical axes, which rotate by the NSK bearings and the windmills installed at the top that receive wind from the circulators run randomly by programming. The petals of flower motifs are composed of several colors, that produce new colors as they turn. From the slope, the layer of colors gradually changes, to let visitors to enjoy the installation with various gazes.

绵延的花朵图形形成了一个美丽的花园，如舞台布景一般将整个展览统一在了一起。花朵中也使用了轴承，游客可以亲自去拨动它们的花茎，在令人炫目的颜色中感受轴承的旋转。

The same flower motifs spread like a garden as a scenographic element of the venue, to accentuate the sense of unity throughout the whole exhibition. By using bearings also for the axes of the flowers, visitors can extend their hands and turn the stalk to feel the spinning of the bearings through color mixing.

尽管每朵花都只是重复着微小简单的动作，但当它们以巨大的数量集中在一处，并被赋予丰富的色彩时，便能够释放出巨大的能量，颠覆人们的感官。

Each one is a small and simple movement. When condensing the simple movements in a single space and overlap with colors, it becomes a mind-blowing installation that releases large energy.
