Magnetic Levitation Sculpture
A small magnet floats freely within a minimalist aluminum form, suspended without electricity, batteries, or hidden supports. Duality brings together minimalist design, delicate motion, and the remarkable physics of diamagnetism.
The Art of Levitation
At first glance, Duality appears to defy gravity. Look closer, and you'll discover something even more remarkable.
This unique sculpture transforms one of nature's rarest magnetic phenomena into an interactive work of art. A small magnet appears to float effortlessly in mid-air using only permanent magnets and the extraordinary diamagnetic properties of bismuth.
Unlike traditional sculptures, Duality invites exploration. The levitating magnet can be displayed in either opening, allowing you to choose which side reveals its impossible-looking effect. Move the magnet from one opening to the other, and with a slight adjustment of the upper magnet, experience the satisfaction of balancing the invisible forces that make diamagnetic levitation possible.
The result is more than a sculpture. It's a conversation piece that encourages curiosity, rewards interaction, and offers a hands-on appreciation of one of physics' most fascinating materials.
Whether displayed in an executive office, engineering workspace, home library, or collector's cabinet, Duality is designed to captivate anyone who encounters it.

Discover the Physics
The secret behind Duality's seemingly impossible levitation lies in diamagnetismβthe remarkable ability of bismuth to repel magnetic fields. Working together with carefully positioned permanent magnets, this subtle force creates the delicate balance that allows a small magnet to float freely in mid-air.
Magnet color and shape may vary slightly from the photos due to material availability. Performance and levitation characteristics remain unchanged.
Safety & Care
This sculpture uses strong magnets. Keep away from small children, pacemakers, and sensitive electronics. Handle with care β the floating magnets are small and could present a choking hazard if dislodged.
