Dom Perignon's Stars

Primary audience: course mentors/team and course members. I intend for the audience to connect with the fine art/commercial images via aesthetic qualities similar to artist photographer Jonathon Knowles: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/46/fa/8f/46fa8f86e3e32a043bd2aceea3ca358c.jpg
My image set of six depict a clear visual fine art, commercial narrative which I am developing as a genre, on champagne bubbles after Brother Dom Perignon who in 1697 tasted 'stars.’  Included as a prop is a modern manmade ice cube.
The various facets of the humble bubble include aesthetic philosophy, emotions such as cheerful and celebratory, personal qualities such as a bubbly nature and associations eg economic and housing bubbles.  Further physicist Gerard Ligar-Belair studied bubbles including champagne: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/the-science-behind-champagne-bubbles-180979272/
These images were staged and manipulated in studio conditions to achieve aesthetically pleasing commercial/fine art product photography in portrait and square (the latter flattering round shapes and used by Knowles), referring to the scientific phenomenon of Champagne bubbles as Perignon's stars and capturing their effervescence.
