Ether
“Ether” is a sculpture made through 3D modelling a drop of highly viscous liquid in various stages, as it falls and hits the floor. The form is traced out of the elastic tendency of a liquid droplet, through studies of photographed droplets and observations of the poured liquid with a high viscosity. The obtained silhouette is rotated in 3D, mirrored vertically, and stacked in random sequences. Erected like an infinite column, the sculpture is designed to create a speculative state of weightlessness by the effects of opposite forces, i.e. gravity and counter-gravity.
