Matt and Ben are traveling to a fun destination next week to install this mobile. Full disclosure: the picture below was actually taken last fall. Since then, the mobile has been painted and packed up and stashed in storage, waiting patiently for the space to be ready for artwork. The time has finally come, and we’re so eager to see the final piece in its final (gorgeous) home!
Portland-based Orchard-inspired Mobile
Remember that orchard-inspired mobile we were creating for a local affordable housing development? It’s installed! Installing projects here in Portland is always a treat, and we’re happy to nstallation went seamlessly. Check out the final photos. (Be sure to note the cool leaf-shaped shadows cast on the ceiling!)
Bank Hanging Mobile Pictures
When it rains, it pours—and we’re more totally happy about that. Here are pictures we received recently of ANOTHER completed mobile. This one hangs in a bank in upstate New York, and it looks waaaay better there than in our shop.
Skylight Ceiling Sculpture Pictures
Hey! More pictures of completed mobiles! Here’s the skylight ceiling sculpture we shipped a few weeks ago. We love how it looks below that skylight, and we looooove those colorful shadows it casts on the wall.
Frank Lloyd Wright-Inspired Mobile at Home
You know we love seeing pictures of our mobiles hanging in their final homes, so we were thrilled to get pictures of this mobile we designed for a private residence in Maryland.
And we were even more thrilled to get this e-mail from the client: “This is so overwhelmingly beautiful—much better than I ever imagined. This is truly a treasured work of art. Thank you.”
Ok, our day is 100% made.
Staircase Pre-Fab #3
Here’s another project in our queue. This is the overhead view of a flowing Pre-Fab #3 Mobile that will hang over the staircase of a medical building. This entire piece will include 65 individual mobiles strung together down the staircase. It was designed to complement other artwork in the area, and the orange pieces represent koi fish. We can’t wait to see it come together!
Skylight Ceiling Sculpture Mobile
Here ya go, another shot of a completed mobile in our shop. This one will hang under the lobby skylight of a North Carolina office building. It includes 200 translucent acrylic shapes, which, when the sun shines through the skylight, will create colorful shadows below!
Bank Hanging Mobile Complete!
By now you should know that our shop isn’t really the best backdrop for our mobiles. But if you squint your eyes, tilt your head right, and ignore the tools, boxes, ladders, HVAC system, and nearly everything else, you can enjoy the dangly mobile we made for bank in upstate New York. We can’t wait to see it in its final (clutter-free) space!
Tulsa Mall Hanging Mobile
Here it is! The hanging mobile we created for the children’s play area of a Tulsa mall. The children’s play area hasn’t been installed quite yet, but we can’t wait wait to see it. The bottom picture shows how the mobile’s shapes cast colorful shadows on the floor below. We hope the children of Tulsa love it!
Tulsa Mall Mobile Installation
Matt and Ben spent some quality time in Tulsa installing a large hanging mobile over what will soon be a children’s play area in a local mall. Here’s a peek at the staging and beginning phases of installation.
To minimize disruption to the mall, Matt and Ben installed the mobile through the night. They were tempted to explore the vacant mall (except a few mall cops), but they stayed pretty darn focused on the task at hand. (Although an Aunt Anne’s pretzel or an Orange Julius would’ve been nice.)
Pictures of the final hanging mobile coming soon!
