A Million Times at Changi
A Million Times at Changi, commissioned by Changi Airport Group, was conceived in 2014 and installed in January 2018 in Terminal 2. It is part of Humans since 1982's A million Times project (2013-ongoing).
“Metaphorically speaking, we liberated the clock from its sole function of measuring and reporting the time by taking the clock hands out of their ‘administrative’ roles and turning them into dancers”
A Million Times at Changi is one of the biggest kinetic sculptures in the world and with its 7,5m amplitude has a 'clock face' that is wider than that of London’s Big Ben (7m).
Each of the 1008 clock-hands (504-minute hands and 504-hour hands) are fitted with individual motors, giving the kinetic sculpture the ability to show various patterns, as well as the time and greetings in various languages across different times of the day
