From magnetic ferroliquids to exploding balloons, Fabian Oefner has experimented with different ways of capturing natural phenomena as charged, visceral photography. He recently applied that same vision at Ferrari’s Maranello headquarters, creating this meditation on the 2015 Calfornia T’s innovative design and speed. By engulfing the car in a colorful storm of paint, Oefner’s State of the Art project takes an exciting look into automotive physical phenomena, including sound waves, momentum, and optics.
