EL.BA 1.0, which stands for “elastic balance,” represents a series of sculptural explorations into minimal forms. These projects investigate how flexible beams and elastic fabrics can be shaped in a delicate balance of forces to create complex curved minimal surfaces. The aim is to transport the viewer’s gaze to new realms and to make mathematical concepts more accessible through the experience of physical models. By harnessing the unique properties of textiles and flexible materials, these innovative designs allow for the creation of complex geometries that adapt to diverse functional and aesthetic requirements.
