Collect, International Art Fair for Modern Craft and Design

The Craft Council present the only gallery-presented fair with the 16th edition this year. I spotted a lot of artworks that have geometry aspect in them, but also this kinetic sculptures:

It is hypnotizing because of all the different views it can get. This is due to the fact that every hanged object has its own wire hanged in a singular spot, so they turn with various speed and so giving various profiles of the whole sculpture. The shadow is another important aspect because they have different outlines and there is the presence of a rectangular red glass, that transfer its colour also to the shadow.


In this second kinetic sculpture there is the presence of a glass element and each items has got its wire too. Its visual balance is broken from a bigger element, half painted with black colour that caught the view.

Event if these kinetic sculptures are quite similar, this suggested me that it could be a category which has got its characteristics.
