Creatures Great and Small , Kinetica Museum @ Rove gallery


The new trend in contemporary F.art has got to be Kinetic Sculpture. Saw the Kinetic show @ the kinetic museum, there was an amazing piece by American artist Jack Pavlik whom constrcuts harmonious sliding steel bands; which slide and propel forward in a uniformed sequence.

"In sculpture you can have an idea, an exact idea but the final result will come from experimentation and the limits of the material. In this mutual give and take, a transformative process takes place; where there is an evolution of both form and idea. In my work I have been combining flexible and rigid materials, materials that merge a biomorphic, surreal pattern of black shapes and lines, with geometric metal frames and structures that work at the same time to move, and contain the active forms of the piece, creating what I hope is a humorous, surreal form of sculpture." - Jack Pavlik
