A unique mobile or two

kw: observations, art, photographs

A couple of random things have crossed my path. First, I am an aficionado of mobiles. I like to go see them (the Delaware Art Museum has a fine one by Calder, and it is nearby), and I occasionally make one. A unique mobile made of pine cones hangs in a music studio at Darlington Arts Center in Boothwyn, PA (AKA Garnet Valley).


But my pick for "even more unique" goes to this "mobile-mobile" in England, made of fifty mobile phones (which are called "mobiles" in England, rather than "cells" as here).


Here is a closeup. The installation is the work of James Theophane of London. The link (his blog) has lots of added material about the mobile-mobile.
