Unique sculpture appears above Dubai Fountain

The Dubai fountain was covered with an original installation, symbolizing the time.

Dubai, UAE. American artist Janet Ehelman hoisted her new installation called '1.78' over the Dubai Fountain, in the heart of Dubai.

The installation, hovering above the fountain, is dedicated to the earthquake in Chile on February 27, 2010: from the impact, the Earth began to rotate 1.78 milliseconds faster, and daylight hours were reduced.

The installation took 124 km of red, orange and purple polyethylene material, of which 600 thousand knots were tied. This matter is 15 times stronger than steel.
