ONCE is a Living Type project by students from the Nanyang Technological University's School of Art, Design & Media.
The installation is a series of clocks that are placed such that the word "ONCE" appears during a specific time and in 12 hour intervals (twice a day).
The project puts the concept of time and opportunity upon the passing audience. Does opportunity really only come once? Also, the idea that to encounter an opportunity, you need to be there at the right place and the right time. The installation also in some ways depict the transient and somewhat ambiguous qualities of opportunities.
ONCE is the brainchild of Dennice Juwono, Hilmi Yeo, Ong Jian'An and Rene Sim.
