Beat
- By Arup, Singapore
- Location : In front of Marina Bay Sands
- Co-created with Philips Lighting, BEGA and CS Lighting
Translucent shapes displayed slowly throb with a relaxed light pulse to draw attention. As the intrigued mind approaches the objects, an instinctive impulse to touch prevails, stimulating the object to respond. Answering visually, the object intensifies and adopts a human heart beat light pulse. Once visitors interact and get together, the installation is synchronized, becoming a single thoughtful act where it glows as a single BEAT.
All it takes is just a tap...
The installation is designed to be inclusive, fun and light-hearted while promoting a sustainable message:
"It only takes one to initiate change and collectively, change can be realized..."
The global team of Arup brings art, science and technology together. The designers create expressive, sustainable and award-winning concepts in light. They understand the interplay of structural form and lighting, and work with architects to provide original conceptual designs. Activating public spaces locally and internationally, the team’s passion for light and technical skills are demonstrated in all their light art installation projects.
