‘Kinetic Rain’ was created by ART+COM, who were commissioned
by the Changi Airport Group in Singapore to produce this stunning, moving, art
installation for their Terminal 1 Departure-Check-in hall.
These beautiful raindrops are made of lightweight aluminium
covered with copper and all 608 of them are suspended from the ceiling over 75
square meters and 7.3 meters in height.
To distract you further from usual airport mayhem, the thin
steel ropes that are attached to the droplets actually pull and release in a
computerised 15 minute choreography, creating mesmerising movements and patterns
–hence the name ‘kinetic rain’.
Why doesn’t the rain look as pretty out of our window?
Check out ART+COM’s video to fully appreciate the
eye-catching concept:
