Emerging, a kinetic sculpture, measures 13 3/4" x 10" x 9 3/4" and is made entirely of TIG-welded stainless steel. This piece is sized suitably for an office desktop or side table. Not only does Emerging display unique and eye-catching frame work, it also features both large and small spirals as well as an energetic and quick vertical coil. The sculpture even comes with its own unique marble not featured in larger works. All components of this sculpture were formed by hand from straight lengths of stainless steel wire using common hand tools, pipe sections being used on occasion to produce a desired bend or curve.

I am a kinetic sculptor working in the unique branch of art called rolling ball sculpture. Using mainly plain steel and/or stainless steel, I create works of art that are both fascinating to behold and fun to watch in operation. Rolling media moves along tracks that I design and create, during its travel the media interacts with various objects such as loops, curves, switches, chimes, tubes, stair steps, funnels, spirals, tipping arms - you name it, I can likely incorporate it into a sculpture! They make great additions to home or office and can function as wonderful conversation starters or excellent diversions in situations where people need something to take their minds off events at hand. My aim is to provide both fun and fascination in my art and thereby make the world a little better place.
