The majority of the Ribbons are suspended and move gently as they float in space, responsive to the lightest touch. The Ribbons appear to change shape and flow as if they are made of liquid mercury. The reflections of their surroundings glide along the immaculately polished surfaces, in ascending and descending motion as the sculpture moves, creating a mesmerizing dance. The captivating visual effect is accomplished through the highly skilled use of refined rhythmic movement and elegant pristine form, suspended in time and space. These sculptures are an embodiment of balanced, fluid movement.space, time and light. They are designed to create a mildly hypnotizing experience and lift the viewer into a more relaxed, blissful, timeless state of being.
