Kinetic Rain

Kinetic Rain is a moving sculpture at Singapore Changi Airport.

Each segment consists of 608 copper-plated aluminum raindrops, each weighing 180 grams (6.3 oz) and is suspended by a thin wire.

The installation is programmed to arrange the raindrops such that they create the contour of flight-related objects such as an airplane, kite or hot air balloon during a 15-minute loop.

[2] Kinetic Rain was created over a period of two years by artists, animators and programmers from the German design firm Art+Com.

[2] According to Art+Com, the sculpture "aims to be a source of identity for its location, and provides a moment for passengers to contemplate and reflect".
