Standing mobiles

I have been a puppet maker and puppeteer for many years, so movement is integral to my three-dimensional work. Having these mobiles and their shadow-selves in one’s house is to be amongst living things; they are unpredictable and constantly amusing in their perpetual performance as they dance with the air. 

They are constructed from found and reworked materials that include steel and copper, wood, silk threads, gold leaf, felt, glassine and shellac. Each is made by hand and unique.

If you like these mobiles and would like to see some more or commission one please contact me on ttinamatthews@gmail.com or @ttinamatt
