Mirror Balls - Empress Pl

Cool mirror balls

Passing by the Giant mirror ball.

I love it

It is an absolutely mesmerizing audio sculpture installation. You gotta have the time to stop and listen before you realize that it isn't a piece reflecting on our desire to document every moment with photos and selfies; but rather an audio piece allowing one to discover Singapore through the soundscape.

Big balls that reflect who wouldn't be madly hypnotic by them

One unique sculpture.

Nice spot for instagrammable photos.
