Gallery: Breathtaking SolarSonic Insta...

This SolarSonic awning in Taiwan is a mindblowing installation made up of 14 discs suspended in a 100 meter-long series. Hanging within the Taoyuan Airport's International Departure terminal's exterior glass canopy, the structure by sculptor Ray King was inspired by the ancient Chinese Bi - neolithic jade discs used to meditate on transcending to the heavens. The sculptural series was designed as a symbol of Taiwan's high-tech future, while also paying homage to a rich cultural heritage, including modern aeronautics and space travel.
