You See Nature And Then

Why Must Art Be Static? You Look At An Abstraction, Sculptured Or Painted, An Entirely Exciting Arrangement Of Planes, Spheres, Nuclei, Entirely Without Meaning. It Would Be Perfect But It Is Always Still. The Next Step In Sculpture Is Motion.

A Mobile Is An Abstract Sculpture Made Chiefly Out Of Sheet Metal, Steel Rods, Wire And Wood. Some Or All Of These Elements Move, Propelled By Electric Motors, Wind, Water Or By Hand.

The Sense Of Motion In Painting And Sculpture Has Long Been Considered As One Of The Primary Elements Of The Composition.

The Simplest Forms In The Universe Are The Sphere And The Circle. I Represent Them By Disks And Then I Vary Them... Spheres Of Different Sizes, Densities, Colours And Volumes, Floating In Space, Traversing Clouds, Sprays Of Water, Currents Of Air, Viscosities And Odours - Of The Greatest Variety And Disparity.

When Everything Goes Right A Mobile Is A Piece Of Poetry That Dances With The Joy Of Life And Surprise!
