Kinetic Rain

Airports are lively transit spaces that present peculiar challenges for any kind of spatial intervention. Kinetic Rain both mirrors the constant activity of this restless place and introduces a more quiet, lighter moment that contrasts with its busyness.

Referencing flying and the natural elements, the sculpture’s fluid movements encourage visitors to enjoy moments of absorption and wonder in an otherwise functional space.

Installed above the central elevators of the departure hall, the sculpture covers an area of more than 75 square meters and can be observed from above, below and all sides. Depending on perspective, the raindrops’ choreography – moving through abstract and figurative three-dimensional forms – provides entirely different experiences.
