The inspiration for this sculpture stems from research into minimal surface structures, formed by surface tension between the edges of forms. If you make a cube out of wire and dip it into a soap solution the soap film forms a ‘Hypercube,’ a cube with a hint of another dimension: a second cube inside the first is visible by seeing through to the other side. This artwork was gifted to the City.
