Look what we just finished! The mobile for Ride Connection! We started the installation after business hours and finished up at around 3 a.m. It was really fun waking up to an inbox of happy feedback from the Ride Connection folks. (One of our favorites: "It is gorgeous!! It will be a showstopper today!")
Ride Connection Materials
The Ride Connection project is starting to come together! Here's the mobile's main component: a bunch of cylinders, which we're currently painting and prepping.
Hexagon Mobile
Here's another project in our queue. This mobile will hang in the atrium of a San Diego office building, right below a skylight. The shapes will be traslucent three-dimensional hexagons. Alright, back to work!
Ekko Workshop at NY Now
As we speak, Matt and Ben are in New York, showing off the Ekko Workshop line at NY Now. It's our very first trade show, and they're meeting buyers from tons of great museum stores, galleries, and gift shops! If you're in area, stop by booth 11014 in the "New!" section at Pier 94.
A Local Project!
Here's another project in our queue, and we're extra excited about it, because it's for the new headquarters of a non-profit right here in Portland! The organization, Ride Connection, provides transportation options to those in need, so feel free to interpret those cylindrical shapes as wheels.
Fish Mobile
A few months ago, we worked with H. Marion Art Consulting to provide a fish-themed mobile to a children's hospital in Chicago. The art consultants included a great write-up about the project on their blog. Read it here!
Cloud Sculpture Materials
This lovely tubing will make the skeleton for the cloud-inspired sculpture we're working on. Stay tuned for progress!
Modern Mobile for Germany
Here a rendering of another project we're working on these days:
This mobile (shown in several several color variations) will ship overseas to a corporate building in Germany. It will hang 9 feet wide by 9 feet tall, and each piece will spin on the vertical axis. The client requested something very modern, and we think these clean lines and bold colors fit the bill!
Cloud-Inspired Ceiling Sculpture
Here's a graphic rendering of one of the next projects in our queue:
It's a cloud-inspired ceiling sculpture that will hang in the skylight and atrium of a North Carolina hospital. The entire piece will hang 18 feet wide by 12 feet deep by 12 feet tall. It will be made of steel tubing frames covered by sheer fabric, similar to White Ribbons and Towering Sails. Stay tuned to see progress!
New Hampshire Hospital Mobile
In April, we mentioned a 25-foot tall mobile we made for a new hospital in New Hampshire. Our client recently sent images of the mobile being installed and fully hanging. We didn't install this particular piece, so it's fun to see someone else do all the work!
