Pivot II Modern Mobile | Hanging Art Mobile
*** I make every mobile to order. Your mobile will typically ship with 3-5 days of purchase ***
Pivot II is based on my charity mobile and plays with movement across multiple planes and the consequence of interconnection.
The mobile design shakes out in three dimensions, intersecting all axes. The bottom three blades rock laterally, the next three arms thrust upward, and the remaining three describe a partial orbit around the rest.
Although seemingly distinct and separate sections, movement at any one point in the mobile affects movement throughout - especially since jump rings are not used between arms, so energy transfer from one to the next and back again is direct.
A very specific circumstance in your life may demand you pivot this way or that. Yet, even the smallest change at one particular point in our nonlinear reality can (and does) have systemic effect on the entire organism (aka the Butterfly Effect).
This mobile finds me thinking about cause and effect, action and reaction, and – surprisingly – compassion; recognizing that it’s really hard to know the impact any one action will have on the whole.
Size. Approximately 22" wide x 22" tall.
All-weather hanging mobile. Made for indoor or outdoor enjoyment with durable UV-resistant paints.
All-metal mobile. Constructed with galvanized steel wire and metal.
Entirely handmade modern mobiles in the USA in Portland, Oregon, by mobile sculpture and kinetic artist Mark Leary.
Mobile comes in color palette shown above, but also available in any color combination you can dream up. Message me for details.
