The room is dark but for glowing pools of viscous, shimmering liquid. Dozens of wire shapes rise and fall from the ceiling, dipping down below the surface and slowly, silently emerging with a glistening fragile skin.
With the cold days settling in, let us lure you into the warm, hypnotic glow of Bubble Ballet, a magical installation that combines interior design with a playful twist on physics—using soap bubbles.
A sensation when it premiered at the 2010 Designers’ Saturday in Langenthal, Switzerland, Design Studio Greutmann Bolzern’s Bubble Ballet creates a fully immersive audio and visual environment exploring geometric shapes with mere soap, wire, water, and an array of motors and pulleys.
Reception: Thursday, December 8, 2011 (7p) – Free with RSVP
Enjoy the installation with light food and drinks and an informal description of the project from designers Carmen Greutmann-Bolzern and Urs Greutmann.
