Mind Bubbles

Mind Bubbles is an installation project conceived for the entrance hall of the Volksbank headquarters in Vienna, designed by architect Carsten Roth. Composed through the deformation and suspension of fabrics, the sculptures appear immobilized in space, giving rise to unexpected forms and transforming familiar everyday reality. The project is part of Erwin Wurm’s broader investigation into the sculptural potential of ordinary and unconventional materials, particularly clothing, through which the artist challenges the boundaries between functional objects and works of art. The temporal dimension is also central: in Mind Bubbles, time appears frozen, creating a state of suspension that resonates with the different temporal dimensions explored throughout his practice, from the ephemeral actions of the One Minute Sculptures to the spatial and perceptual distortions of his large-scale installations.
