Commisioned kinetic light installation
Gravity Axis + Flow of time
In the boundless sky, flight blurs the boundaries of distance and time.
As one of the most representative modes of contemporary transportation, airplanes not only break through the limitations of space but also make us reconsider how time is perceived and defined in a world of rapid movement.
This art installation was commissioned by STARLUX Airlines and in collaboration with the design team Skillability, creates a space infused with a futuristic and sci-fi atmosphere.
Gravity Axis
A hanging light installation slowly rotates at the center of the space, like an event node locked by gravity.
The brass tracks embedded in the floor, the concentric curved structure of the ceiling, and the black polished stone floor, which seems to stretch space and time, all revolve around this “core,” creating a stable yet dynamic spatial field.
Flow of Time
The standing sculpture visualizes the segmentation and flow of time.
The spheres in the installation revolve around the center at varying speeds, symbolizing how time in our perception can stretch, shorten, or distort at any given moment.
The varying thickness of the discs, the interlocking mechanisms, and the continually cycling rhythm of movement all come together to depict our concrete imagination of the abstract concept of “time.”
