Description

ELBA is a sculptural exploration of minimal forms. Born from an intensive collaboration between artist Alison Martin and the EPFL Geometric Computing Laboratory directed by Prof. Mark Pauly, ELBA investigates how flexible ribbons and elastic fabric can be shaped in a delicate balance of forces to create a complex curved minimal surface. ELBA aims to transport the viewer’s gaze to a new place and make accessible mathematical concepts through the experience of a physical model.
