Kinetic Rain in Changi Airport Terminal 1 Departure Hall

This is a new sculpture made up of 1,1216 metal droplets in Terminal 1 of Changi Airport in Singapore.

Each droplet weighs 180g, powered by a motor housed in the ceiling of the departure hall.

The droplets are coated with polished copper to prevent the surface from rusting.

Kinetic Rain morphs into 16 different shapes in a 15 minute loop, ranging from an airplane to a kite, captures the varied aspects of flight.

The sculpture was made by German design firm led by a German based Finnish artist. Officially opens on 18 July 2012 but already operational now.

Here is a short video so as to appreciate the Kinetic Rain better........



So if you are passing through the airport, remember to drop by and have a look at it.
