Since its invention in the 60s by NASA, magnetic fluid -- originally intended as rocket fuel -- has gone to impact applications in a wide range of industries from electronics to construction. For me this material represents a never ending source of creative ideas. It can be shaped, coloured and lit in so many ways. In this project I attempted to create flower-like shapes and colours, using various colouring and lighting techniques.
