Large Custom Made Mobiles and Suspended Kinetic Art Installations


I’m a sculptor specializing in mobiles and suspended kinetic art installations. I design, build and install custom mobiles from small to large scale. Throughout this page are examples of the custom-designed and custom-made mobiles I have made so far. It ranges from a custom-designed contemporary two-part mobile sculpture for the atrium at the Learning Commons at Kettering University (a highly innovative state-of-the-art 105,000 square-foot architectural masterpiece), to a Calder-inspired mobile for the Joint and Spine Center at the Christ Hospital in Cincinnati, OH with a height of 33 feet, to a large custom mobile sculpture I designed in a collaboration with film director Neil Burger that was featured throughout the movie The Upside, to a series of three large custom mobile sculptures I designed and made for the Marriott at Fair Oaks in Fairfax, Virginia, which is now the second highest ranked Marriott Hotel in North America for “Design and Decor”, and for which I won 3rd Prize at the 2015 International Kinetic Art Competition, to a custom-designed and custom-made mobile sculpture for Robert A. M. Stern, former dean of the Yale School of Architecture, for his room at the 2017 Kips Bay Designer Show House, to a custom mobile sculpture to be suspended above the conference table at interior designer Robert Passal’s office, to a number of custom mobile sculptures I have made for private residences.
