Lights and Gears in Motion

# Kinetic Installation

This kinetic artwork is the entrance piece for the Nagamori Collection Gallery, situated adjacent to the Nidec Corporation headquarters.
It seamlessly merges digital media, showcasing video and music, with the tangible mechanics of gears.

This piece serves as an introduction to the gallery, which houses an extensive collection of historical music boxes and automata brimming with mechanical devices and melodies.
It elegantly embellishes the gallery's entrance.

The artwork features gears and music box components in its video projection, alongside bursts of green light inspired by the technology of music boxes and mechanical devices.
These elements symbolize the continuous advancement of Nidec's motor technology, weaving the legacy of manufacturing and energy into the fabric of modern society and beyond.

On the walls, the kinetic motion of gears and the three-dimensional lighting effects, predominantly in monochrome, create an inviting spatial experience for visitors.
This installation not only enhances the grandeur of the gallery’s entrance but also seeks to blend contemporary elegance with enduring strength.
