Essential Recommendations:

Comfortable, Slip-On Shoes: Visitors will be walking, sitting, and sometimes removing their shoes in certain areas (a common practice in Japanese immersive exhibits). Easy-to-remove footwear is a major plus.


Layers of Clothing: The exhibition space is climate-controlled and can be cool. Wearing layers (like a t-shirt with a cardigan or light jacket) allows for easy adjustment to personal comfort.


A Small Bag or Backpack: For personal items like wallets, phones, and water bottles. Ensure it's easy to carry and not too bulky, as spaces can be intimate.


Highly Recommended:

A Smartphone/Camera (Fully Charged!): Photography is generally encouraged to capture the stunning visuals. A power bank is a wise addition.


Socks (Clean & Presentable): In areas where shoes must be removed, you'll be glad to have a comfortable pair of socks. Some interactive floors are best experienced in socks.


Patience & Curiosity: This isn't a traditional museum. Encourage them to take their time, sit down, observe how the art evolves, and discover how their presence influences the environment.


Things to Be Aware Of / Leave Behind:

Large Luggage or Strollers: These are typically not permitted inside the exhibition space. Luggage storage lockers are often available at major train stations or near the venue. For young children, a baby carrier is strongly recommended over a stroller, as strollers are usually not allowed in the art rooms.


Tripods or Selfie Sticks: These are often prohibited as they can obstruct pathways and the experience of others in the dark, crowded spaces.


Very Short Skirts or Dresses: Due to mirrored floors and areas where visitors sit on the ground, modest attire is recommended for personal comfort and privacy.


High Heels or Difficult Footwear: These are impractical for the potentially dark, smooth, and sometimes slightly inclined floors.


What They Don't Need to Bring (Specific to Biovortex):

Swimwear or Towels: This is not a water-based installation.


Sunscreen or Hats: The entire experience is indoors in a dark, controlled environment.


Food or Drinks: Consuming food and drinks inside the exhibition is almost certainly not allowed.
