Bubble Flowers

Written by Mirek Struzik on 8. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Inspired by the chrysanthemums the Miaoli region is famous for — and the technology it’s building its future on — Bubble Flowers translates a native flower into the language of stainless steel and light. Mirek Struzik studied the chrysanthemum’s form in close detail, then rebuilt it at monumental scale using electropolished 316L stainless steel, letting the organic structure of the petals guide the sculpture’s abstract geometry.

By day, the piece reads as pure form: a large-scale botanical abstraction rendered in mirror-polished metal, catching and refracting the changing light of the park around it. At dusk, an integrated LED lighting system takes over, and the sculpture undergoes a complete transformation — color moving through the structure the way light moves through a living petal.

The lighting system carries over 10 dedicated thematic programs, each tuned to a different occasion. Tongluo Science Park can activate specific sequences for national holidays, seasonal festivals, corporate milestones, or other celebrations — giving the sculpture a changing identity throughout the year rather than a single fixed appearance.

Bubble Flowers stands at the entrance to Tongluo Science Park, where it has become a daily landmark for the people who work there — present at the start of the day and, in a different form, at its close.

Dandelions stainless steel sculpture installation on Cagliari port boulevard, Sardinia

Dandelions – Cagliari

Written by Mirek Struzik on 8. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Four dandelions, rendered in stainless steel at monumental scale, now mark the redeveloped seafront boulevard in Cagliari’s port district. Dandelions began as a close structural study of Taraxacum officinale — the seed head’s radiating, almost architectural geometry — then translated that structure from the scale of a single flower to a public landmark several meters tall.

The result sits deliberately between two registers: futuristic in its material and precision, fairy-tale in its silhouette. Commissioned by the Autorità di Sistema Portuale del Mare di Sardegna, the four-piece installation anchors a prominent stretch of the newly redesigned coastal boulevard, giving the waterfront a recognizable identity point at the city’s edge.

Set against open sea and sky, the sculptures behave differently through the day — reflective and sculptural in daylight, animated by the shifting maritime light along the port.

Bubble Trees in the Clouds

Written by wf_SUz on 3. August 2026. Posted in Project. No Comments on Bubble Trees in the Clouds

Bubble Trees in the Clouds was created specifically for the Innovative Learning Classroom Building of the Texas A&M University. This composition consists of the Struzik’s signature Bubble Tree on a terrace surrounded by glass walls, and a large scale wall art installation basing on a solid aluminum film wallpaper and three-dimensional, foamed PCV grass blade details.

The two elements complement each other and provide a calming, close to nature feeling to the students and faculty members of the high-tech facility in Collage Station, TX. They merge form, light, and space into a dynamic, thought-provoking piece that resonates with students, faculty, and visitors. The accompanying mural further enriches the experience, creating a harmonious dialogue between sculpture and environment.

The stainless steel sculpture on the terrace is uplit with the dynamic RGB LED system that changes colors – it additionally enhances the mood on the terrace in the evening. The wall art is visible from the terrace too – when relaxing under the tall sculpture, the audience can surround themselves in the specifically created, relaxing environment inspired both by nature, and by technology.

The project was realized as a result of Mirek Struzik winning an international art competition organized by the Texas A&M university. The goal was to create a set of two art installations that correspond with each other.

Bubble Trees

Written by wf_SUz on 31. July 2026. Posted in Project.

“Bubble Trees” was created as a new iteration of the Bubble sculptures series and reflects values similar to those presented by the Bubble Forest: the ability of plants to produce oxygen.
Bubble Trees in their basic form consists of three main elements (the trees), however they can be multiplicated, there can be many more Bubble Trees installed in the client’s location.
When the sun sets, the dynamic illumination system (RGB LED lamps in light boxes installed in ground + the controller) lets the sculpture undergo a complete metamorphosis and shows its true colors. It’s a great feature in dynamic public places, where a lot of people walk.

Dandelions – Kirkland

Written by wf_SUz on 29. July 2026. Posted in Project.

“Dandelions” is an installation directly inspired by the sophisticated design of dandelions (Taraxacum officinale) occurring in nature. The concept of this work was preceded by a meticulous analysis of the structure of dandelion seedhead, which in a somewhat simplified form was then transposed to the macro scale. As a result, the delicate floral pattern took on a completely new — half futuristic, half fairy tale — context.

Designed for Cap3000 “Bubble Forest” and “Dandelions” installations were created as a result of inspiration with delicate natural plant forms, and were executed in extremely hard and weather-resistant material — acid-resistant stainless steel.

Bubble Forest

Written by wf_SUz on 26. July 2026. Posted in Project.

“Bubble Forest” was created as a reflection on the ability of plants to produce oxygen. The title forest consists of 18 steel stems/trunks ending with inflorescences/crowns in the form of spherical constructions representing a single air bubble. “Bubble Forest” refers to the terrestrial flora as well as to that known from the bottom of lakes, seas and oceans.

Dandelions Seoul

Written by wf_SUz on 24. July 2026. Posted in Project.

The project was inspired by dandelions which are present in nature. The idea of Dandelions is to capture floral delicacy using “heavy material” – metal. The delicate nature of Dandelions contrasts the monumental architecture of the city.

Dandelions are made of high quality acid resistant stainless electropolished steel. It does not require special maintenance. It is totally water, storm and winter-proof.
