Art with Microfluidics
Paris, February 2025
How can we make the invisible world of microfluidics visible—and beautiful? Through his latest project, artist Julien Ridouard explores this question by transforming scientific microfluidic chips into works of art. Drawing from iconic microfluidic functions such as droplet generation, fluid mixing, and organ-on-a-chip models, he designs chips that reveal the hidden elegance of fluids at the microscale.
These artistic creations go beyond their scientific utility: they are designed to be displayed. Framed and ready to hang, they can adorn laboratory walls, spark discussions at conferences, or serve as educational tools in universities. The goal? To make microfluidics research more accessible, engaging, and visually compelling for everyone.
