| I’m a mechanical guy in
a digital world. Ever since I was a child I’ve worked on mechanical devices and kinetic sculptures. I find fascination in mechanical movements of almost any kind. My moving sculptures have taught me I’m not alone in this fascination. I think it must be some primordial reaction to motion that draws the crowds. It grabs their attention and pulls them in. I love to watch the people watching my sculptures, different people are attracted by different types of motion and different mechanical movements. As people watch them they are drawn in and begin to interact with the piece, becoming part of the sculpture themselves. I never tire of seeing this transformation. Whatever it is that attracts them, by the time they leave, they all have a smile on their face. |
