Joseph Plateau (1801 – 1883) was the first scientist to discover the unusual shapes that soap bubbles can take when rigid frameworks of various shapes are used in the process.

With this project I explore exactly that phenomenon, which opens-up the door to non-spheric shapes for soap bubbles.

A point for reflection: could our lives take completely different “shapes” if organised according to specific frameworks?
