Soap Bubbles
Coralie Quincey & Peter Hobbs
About the art suite
The project immerses us in the world of children's games - an imaginary and oversized world. It addresses the theme of carelessness and the ephemeral.
On one wall, a child's face emerges and blows bubbles. At the head of the bed, his band holds a bubble stick.
Some soap bubbles settle down on the bed. On the opposite wall, a bubble projected by the breath is bursting and splashing.
The composition concentrates on the essential detaljs and use the space to describe a dynamic gesture. It invites us to appreciate beauty and fragility of life through the purity of a child's action.
