The kinetic sculptures follow the constructivist trend of exposing the truth; by showing the bare materials and inner workings. The pieces still retain playful qualities, such as colorful textile and relatable dog identifiers such as a wagging tail and playful pose.
The same way that man created god in his own image, the industrial material also mirrors human anatomy. Cables and veins transport nutrients throughout the body. Wires and bones provide the inner support. While the spine is a cold iron wire, its flexed in a playful position humanizing an industrial material.
Understanding the world for a man is reducing it to the human, stamping it with his seal. The cat’s universe is not the universe of the anthill.
The truism “All thought is anthropomorphic” has no other meaning.
