Kinetic Sculptures: An Introduction to Mobile-Making
In this workshop participants will briefly engage with concepts of balance and movement, become familiar with the mobiles of artists like Munari, Man Ray, and Calder, and finally, dive right into crafting their own mobile or kinetic sculpture using small metal or wooden objects, foam, paper cutouts, wire, beads, and bamboo dowels. Attendees are encouraged to work as big or as small, as minimal or as intricate as they would like in their sculptural works.
