From afar, Fiet by Toer, a studio based in the Netherlands, looks like a giant bubble created by a street performer. As the shape becomes more discernible, it is clear that it isn't made out of soap and water, but countless of [clear plastic cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curly-cube). Nevertheless, it moves just as if it were a bubble in the air. Slow and fluid, the form can also be likened to a giant amoeba.

An [interactive light sculpture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miror-collection), Fiet by Toer moves about peacefully and gently when the room it occupies is nice and quiet. As soon as [noise is introduced](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble) into the mix, it shakes as though agitated. People will probably feel empathetic when viewing Fiet by Toer. Whether they perceive it as an alien life form or a pile of plastic, it creates a strong connection.
