I am a mechanical guy in a digital world. Ever since I was a child I have worked on mechanical devices and kinetic sculptures. I’m fascinated in mechanical movements of almost any kind. My moving sculptures have taught me I am not alone in this fascination. I think it must be some primordial reaction to motion that draws them. It grabs their attention and pulls them in. I love to watch the people watching my sculptures. After a short while these people become part of the sculpture, reacting to it and with it. It’s an amazing transformation to watch. Kinetic Sculpture, exploring movement and people’s attraction to movement. Welded stainless steel, found metal, rolling balls of glass or stainless, gravity devices, motorized lifts.
