Black Walnut and Poplar with 5 coats spar varnish
Painted Steel Wire
A bold, mid-century–inspired kinetic sculpture stretching 52 inches across. Crafted from black walnut and poplar, this expansive piece explores balance and orbit in a way that feels both architectural and alive.
Guided by the interplay of rhythm and natural form, the composition suggests celestial motion—systems turning in quiet relationship to one another. Finished with five coats of spar varnish, a marine-grade protective finish that enhances the wood grain while guarding against moisture and wear. Painted steel wire adds lift and directional movement, giving the work a subtle kinetic energy.
About the Kinetic Sculptures
These works are kinetic sculptures—art designed to move.
Each hanging mobile is carefully balanced so it can respond naturally to air currents. A subtle shift in temperature, a nearby doorway opening, or the quiet movement of a room is enough to set the forms into slow rotation. The motion is never mechanical or forced. It’s organic, gentle, and continuous.
Inspired by mid-century modern design and the rhythms of the natural world—the sway of branches, the rise of tides, the circular path of planets—each piece explores balance, proportion, and harmony through movement. Painted steel wire acts as both structure and line, while hand-finished wood elements bring warmth and grounding presence.
The result is sculpture that doesn’t just occupy space—it activates it. Over time, the composition is always slightly different, always returning to equilibrium. Calm. Measured. Alive.
