Pressurized ink

02/2019 - Paris

Experimenting the idea of automatic painting and creating abstract sound.
I was inspired by the principle of the Italian coffee maker Bialetti to create an ink projection.

A blowtorch heats a glass boiling flask with ink. The more steam builds up, the more the pressure increases. At a certain point, the pressure pushes the ink up along a glass tube and projects it. To "impose" a round shape, this device is fixed on a rotating plate using a screwdriver.

Along the different stages, the installation create a sound texture and visual creation
