Matt and Ben were in the Bay Area last week to install this mobile in a newly renovated hospital. The installation went smoothly, and it helped a ton that the frame was already installed. Here are a few before and progress shots. We’ll post final pictures very soon!
Residential Stabile
In between hospital projects, here’s a six-foot tall standing mobile we’re about to ship off to a private residence.
Bay-Area Hospital Mobile Shapes
We’re getting ready for the installation at the Bay-area hospital! Here are some of the lovely, sparkly shapes. We look forward to seeing them hanging!
Ohio High School Mobile Photos
We found a few pictures of the Ohio high school mobile buried in our inbox. The first is pre-calculus students at the high school taking photos of the mobile to analyze its shapes. (Those lucky kids, attending school in person. And lucky parents of those kids…)
And the client sent this gorgeous photo of the mobile with an amazing sunset in the background.
Fish Wall Sculpture Progress
Here are pictures of some of the fish for the Florida hospital’s fish wall sculpture. The clients are installing this sculpture themselves, so Matt created verrrrrrrry detailed how-to videos. We can’t wait to see pictures of the final piece!
Annual White River Spruce Up
Each winter, Matt and Ben return to Batesville, Arkansas to clean and inspect the White River Mobile. Since it hangs over a hospital food court, the mobile accumulate some grime—and the deep-clean got it sparkling clean, like the day it was installed. (Which is when these picture were taken.) See you next February, White River Mobile!
Daniel Goldstein Collaboration
Here is a project we are thrilled about. It’s a collaborative project with the talented artist Daniel Goldstein. This ceiling sculpture will sweep through the seating area of a hospital cafeteria. Working off Daniel’s design, we will work closely with him to fabricate, build, and install the mobile. We can’t wait to dive in!
Fish Wall Sculpture Rendering
Here are renderings of a project we’re working on for a Florida hospital. This will be a wall sculpture that incorporates brushed stainless-steel fish, “swimming” along a corridor wall.
Bay-Area Hospital Frame Installation
We’ll be the first to admit, these are not the most exciting installation photos. But we wanted to document the different installation approach we’re doing for this particular project.
This frame is for the Bay-area hospital mobile. The facility already had scaffolding onsite, so Matt and Ben traveled to install the frame before the scaffolding was removed. When they’ll return later to complete the mobile, they’ll just need a lift. This approach made things simpler for all parties. Stay tuned to see the final thing!
New York Marriott Marquis Installation
Matt and Ben just returned from a super-quick trip* to New York City to install this ceiling sculpture in the New York City Marriott Marquis in Times Square. (Experiencing such a ghost-town Times Square was certainly unique!)
The installation went totally smoothly, thank goodness.** The hotel security guys had nice things to say about the sculptures. And we especially love seeing so much color reflected onto the walls and ceiling.
*Turns out you can bypass New York’s mandatory quarantine period if you’re in the state for less than 24 hours. (Thank you, New York COVID-19 Hotline!)
**Total time in New York state: 22 hours, 50 minutes.
