We were sending some guests off at Singapore Changi Airport and chanced upon this stunning piece of optical illusion, "The Millioniare Life" which is created by U.S. 3D art maestro Kurt Wenner specially for Changi Airport.
Measuring 9m by 9m and 3m high, this giant 3D street art is currently spread on a digitally scanned canvas across the marble floor of the Terminal 3 Departure Hall.
Visitors can actually walk on it, sit on it and take pictures with it. A photo booth allows visitors to pose with the image and have pictures e-mailed to them.
We were like two big kids, taking turns to pose and have fun having our ‘Millionaire’ photos taken at this art installation. :D
We participated in the ‘Be a Changi Millionaire’ retail promotion which will run for a period of six months from 12 May to 11 November 2012. Organised by Changi Airport Group (CAG), one lucky winner could be a millionaire in a flash with its grand prize of S$1 million. I am keeping my fingers crossed.:P
I keep my fingers crossed for you too :) Great examples of artwork, and fun! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat fun and such interesting optical illusions.
ReplyDeleteOoooh I was at that airport for several hours in November and didn't see the work. I would have taken photos in a flash as well.

ReplyDeleteI visited similar museums in Japan.
It's like this.
What a cool installation!
ReplyDeleteAnd you two sure looks like you're having fun with it. :)
Guess that technically it's airport art seeing it's in Changi -- hehehe... but definitely can see how it really would be at home in open air as well as enclosed public spaces. :)

Hi ECL, wow that is really cool! Great photos and take for this week's themes. I enjoyed the fun poses. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
I've been at Changi airport in 2010, but it was on Terminal 5 i guess, and it was actually my first time to travel aboard so I wasn't be able to roam the airport for I was scared if I will be late from next flight going to London. Lol. But the photos sounds interesting.. hope i could send this place again.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long it's going to be there, better get a glimpse of it before it's gone.
ReplyDeleteHa! What fun photos and what excellent 3D art! I would love to see that one day.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is amazing!
